RESUMEN
Se presenta investigación documental realizada en 2009 que pretende documentar el marco normativo y los programas vigentes para la detección temprana del cáncer mamario en América Latina y establecer los retos más importantes para contener la epidemia en la región. Se identificaron diversas iniciativas emprendidas por las autoridades gubernamentales de salud para contrarrestar el crecimiento de la morbi-mortalidad por esta causa mediante estrategias de detección temprana, atención e investigación. A pesar de los avances en el diseño de políticas, programas, protocolos y guías de manejo clínico, persisten importantes retos para lograr los objetivos propuestos y la contención de este problema.
ABSTRACT
Documentary research carried out in 2009 aims to document the regulatory framework and existing programs for the early detection of breast cancer in Latin America and the Caribbean in order to establish the most important challenges for the containment of the epidemic in the region. The governments of the region have developed diverse efforts and initiatives to confront the rise in mortality due to said cause, including early detection, treatment and research strategies. Despite advances in the early detection of breast cancer, the challenge remains to link efforts to ensure continuity of care (diagnostic confirmation, treatment and monitoring) in order to achieve higher efficiency, effectiveness and benefits for women with this disease.
