Abstract

Objective The present study evaluated the relationship between the incidence of colorectal cancer and colonoscopy in Santa Catarina from 2018 to 2022.

Methods Observational study of ecological type, which includes all confirmed cases of CRC in the state of Santa Catarina from 2018 to 2022, across health macro-regions. The data were obtained from SINAN, through TABNET/DATASUS. The variables gender, age group, race, type of care, average cost per hospitalization, days of stay, deaths, and mortality rates were evaluated.

Results In the period from 2018 to 2022, there were more than 28,000 cases of CRC in the state of Santa Catarina, with the Grande Oeste region being responsible for the highest incidence throughout the studied period. The main age group is between 70 and 79 years old; As for gender, most cases are predominantly male; about race, white ethnicity is predominant; the nature of service is, for the most part, elective; the average value per hospital stay is 2,355.41; total hospital stay days are 120,924; the number of deaths is 1553 and the mortality rate is (5.44/100.00). Regarding colonoscopy, the largest number of colonoscopies performed was in Grande Florianópolis.

Conclusion There is a high incidence of CRC cases in the state of Santa Catarina. Males and those aged 70 to 79 are the most affected by CRC in Santa Catarina. The Grande Oeste region has a higher incidence of cases compared with other health macro-regions.
