Abstract
OBJETIVO: Describir los recursos existentes para el tratamiento del cáncer de mama en México.

Este estudio se realizo en México, DF, en agosto y septiembre del año 2008. RESULTADOS: Los 23 CEC ofrecen atención médica para el cáncer de mama, incluidos cirugía, quimioterapia y radioterapia, todos ellos acreditados por el Seguro Popular. Las cuotas de recuperación se definieron por etapa clínica, desde 27 500 pesos para la etapa clínica cero hasta 480 000 pesos en pacientes con enfermedad avanzada. Se ha atendido a 2 689 pacientes con cáncer de mama; sólo 1% se presentó con carcinoma in situ CONCLUSIONES: Se tiene la infraestructura y los recursos médicos para el óptimo tratamiento, pero los costos son altos debido al diagnóstico tardío. La detección oportuna del cáncer de mama es una prioridad para el óptimo control de esta enfermedad en México.
OBJECTIVE: Describe the resources for the treatment of breast cancer in Mexico. METHODS: Information was obtained from 23 Centros Estatales de Cáncer (State Cancer Centers, CEC), two federal hospitals and Cancerología. This study was performed in Mexico City in August/September of 2008. RESULTS: These 23 centers provide medical care for breast cancer including surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy; all of them validated by the Seguro Popular. The costs were defined according to clinical stage and ranged from $27,500.00 pesos for clinical stage 0 to $480,00.00 in the advanced stage. A total of 2 689 women with breast cancer have been treated; only 1% was reported with in situ carcinoma. CONCLUSIONS: An adequate medical infrastructure is in place to treat breast cancer in Mexico. The costs are high due to late diagnosis of the disease. Early detection of breast cancer is a high priority for optimal control of this disease in Mexico.
