The present investigation intends to fill a gap in the limited number of epidemiological studies carried out in Córdoba to date. The American Cancer Society recommends starting the detection of mammary pathology at the age of 40. We have found that in our hospital patients, this pathology is present at an earlier age than those current in foreign statistics and is diagnosed at a more advanced stage. This was our reason for studying mammary cancer in the city of Córdoba.Objectives: to asses characteristics related to age and staging of women with mammary cancer assisted in public hospitals of the city of Córdoba for the period 1998-2003.Materials and methods: this is a descriptive epidemiological, explicatory, retrospective, transversal and analytical study,. Out of a total of 1031 cases, only 961 cases were studied, based on a systematic random sample. The study included the analysis of a subgroup of women under 45 years of age, for which all cases were studied.The dependent variable is the woman with mammary cancer. The records and central archives of the pathological anatomy services of four Córdoba hospitals for the period 1998-2003 were scrutinized, having previously obtained the necessary authorizations.1031 cases of mammary cancer were found, but only 931 cases were studied due to deficiencies in the clinical records; these were analyzed according to the objectives stated.Results: the mean for ages was 56 years ± 0.43. The risk of mammary cancer starts at 36. 21% of the malignant pathology cases was found in women under 45 years of age. Early detection of this pathology in the public hospitals of the city of Córdoba has come out as quite ineffective, since 70.70% of the cases are assisted in stages II, III and IV, a percentage that applies to both the general random sample and the total of the age subgroup under 45.Conclusions:-Mammary cancer appears at an earlier age than those current in international statistics.-Detection of the initial pathology in patients assisted in public hospitals is quite ineffective, independent of age.-Epidemiological research in public hospitals is impaired by deficiencies in the statistical system employed by those hospitals. |

Pocos son los estudios epidemiológicos que se han realizados en Córdoba, con el fin de conocer nuestra realidad; éste es el motivo que nos impulsó a realizar ésta investigación. la SAC(Sociedad Americana de Cáncer) recomienda la búsqueda de la patología mamaria a partir de los 40 años. Hemos observado, que en nuestro medio, la patología mamaria en las pacientes Hospitalarias se ven a menudo en pacientes más jóvenes que las encontradas en estadísticas extranjeras y los estadíos al diagnóstico, son avanzados, lo que nos llevó, a estudiar el comportamiento del cáncer de mama en nuestra ciudad- Objetivos: Conocer las características relacionadas con edad y estadificación de las mujeres con cáncer de mama, atendidas en los Hospitales Públicos de la Ciudad de Córdoba, desde 1998 al 2003.Material y método: Este estudio es una investigación de naturaleza epidemiológica, descriptiva, explicativa, retrospectiva, transversal y analítica.Del total general , 1031 casos, sólo se investigan 961 casos, y se selecciona una muestra, de tipo aleatorio sistemático.Incluido en ésta investigación, se analiza un subgrupo de mujeres con 45 y menos años, estudiando la totalidad de los casos encontrados.La variable dependiente es mujer con cáncer de mama.Se estudiaron los registros de cuatro Hospitales de la Ciudad de córdoba desde 1998/2003, correspondientes a los Servicios de Anatomía Patológica y sus archivos centrales previos permisos pertinentes.Se encontraron 1031 cánceres de mama, de los que se investiga solo 931 casos por inconvenientes en las historias, que se analizaron según los objetivos definidos. Resultados: la media de edades fué de 56 años +- 0,43El riesgo a padecer el cáncer de mama comienza a los 36 años.de edad. Del total general el 21% de la patología maligna corresponde a mujeres menores a 45 añosLa pesquisa de la patología temprana en los Hospitales Públicos de la Ciudad de Córdoba es poco efectiva ya que el 70,70% de los casos se resuelven en los estadíos II, III, IV , tanto para la muestra aleatoria del total general, como en el estudio de la totalidad de las mujeres con 45 años y menos-Conclusiones:- Las edades de las pacientes con cáncer de mama: ocurre a edades más tempranas que las encontradas en estadísticas internacionales-La pesquisa de la patología inicial, en las pacientes que concurren a los Hospitales Públicos independiente a la edad del encuentro de la patología, es poco efectiva.-La investigación epidemiológica en los Hospitales Públicos se ve dificultada por los defectos del sistema estadístico que opera en los Hospitales en general.
