ABSTRACT
Resumen: El objetivo fue estimar el efecto del aseguramiento en salud sobre la supervivencia global y libre de enfermedad en pacientes con cáncer de mama. La muestra se compuso de mujeres operadas en el Instituto de Cancerología, Medellín, Colombia, con datos del registro institucional. Las variables se compararon entre régimen subsidiado y contributivo com chi cuadrado test (χ2) o test t de Student, método de Kaplan-Meier y prueba de rangos logarítmicos (log-rank test). La variable de interés se ajustó con una regresión de Cox. Se incluyeron 2.732 pacientes con mediana de seguimiento de 36 meses. Del régimen contributivo murieron el 10% y del régimen subsidiado murieron 23%. Hubo diferencias en tiempos de acceso a tratamiento (régimen contributivo: 52 vs. régimen subsidiado: 112 días, p < 0,05). Supervivencia libre de enfermedad y supervivencia global fueron mejores en régimen contributivo que en régimen subsidiado (p < 0,05); supervivencia global depende de variables del tumor y del tratamiento. Supervivencia global y supervivencia libre de enfermedad y tiempos de acceso para atención y diagnóstico en etapa temprana fueron mejores en régimen contributivo que en régimen subsidiado.
Abstract: The study aimed to estimate the effect of health insurance on overall survival and disease-free survival in breast cancer patients undergoing surgery at the Las Américas Oncology Institute in Medellín, Colombia, with data from the institutional registry. The variables were compared between subsidized coverage and contributive coverage with chi-squared test (χ2) or Student t test, Kaplan-Meier, and log-rank test. The target variable was adjusted with Cox regression. There were 2,732 patients with a median follow-up of 36 months. Ten percent of the women with contributive coverage died, compared to 23% of the subsidized coverage group. There were differences in time-to-treatment (contributive group with 52 days versus subsidized group with 112 days, p < 0.05). Disease-free survival and overall survival were better in women with contributive coverage compared to those with subsidized coverage (p < 0.05), and overall survival varied according to tumor and treatment variables. Overall survival and disease-free survival and early time-to-diagnosis and treatment were better in patients with contributive coverage compared to those with subsidized coverage.
Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho foi estimar o efeito do seguro de saúde sobre a sobrevivência global e livre de doença em pacientes com câncer de mama. A amostra foi composta por mulheres operadas no Instituto de Cancerologia Las Américas em Medellín, Colombia, com dados do registro institucional. As variáveis foram comparadas entre o regime subsidiado e contributivo com teste do qui-quadrado (χ2) ou teste t de Student, método de Kaplan-Meier e log-rank test. A variável de interesse foi ajustada por meio de uma regressão de Cox. Foram incluídas 2.732 pacientes durante um período médio de acompanhamento de 36 meses. Do regime contributivo morreram 10% das mulheres e do regime subsidiado morreram 23%. Houve diferenças nos tempos de acesso ao tratamento (regime contributivo: 52 vs. regime subsidiado: 112 dias; p < 0,05). Sobrevivência livre de doença e sobrevivência global foram melhores em regime contributivo do que em regime subsidiado (p < 0,05); sobrevivência global depende de variáveis do tumor e do tratamento. Sobrevivência global e sobrevivência livre de doença e os tempos de acesso para atenção e diagnóstico no estágio inicial foram melhores em regime contributivo do que em regime subsidiado.

Las recomendaciones para la biopsia por aspiración con aguja fina de mama se desarrollaron y aprobaron en 1997 por el Instituto Nacional de Cáncer en Bethesda, Estados Unidos y fueron adaptadas a nuestro país en 2007, sin embargo, en los últimos años no se han realizado cambios formales en estas indicaciones. El objetivo de este módulo es presentar la actualización del reporte de biopsia por aspiración con aguja fina de mama, usando el sistema de reporte Bethesda, realizado por consenso con un grupo de patólogos, clínicos, radiólogos, cirujanos de mama y otros profesionales de la salud de Colombia y otros países, y con base en la experiencia realizando biopsia por aspiración con aguja fina de mama del Hospital Pablo Tobón Uribe y de Dinámica IPS.
Recommendations for breast fine needle aspiration biopsy were developed and approved in 1997 by The National Cancer Institute of Bethesda, United States, , and were adapted to our country on 2007, however, in last years these indications have not changed in a formal manner. The purpose of this review was to provide an update of the report for breast fine needle aspiration biopsy using the Bethesda system. This guide was made by consensus with pathologists, clinicians, radiologists, breast surgeons and other health professionals of Colombia and other countries. The update was basis on the experience of Hospital Pablo Tobon Uribe and Dinamica IPS in performing breast fine needle aspiration biopsy.
