EPIDEMIOLOGICAL PROFILE OF MALIGNANT THYROID NEOPLASMS IN THE SOUTHEAST REGION FROM 2020 TO 2024 Introduction thyroid cancer is the most prevalent type of endocrine tumor and plays a significant role among carcinomas affecting the head and neck region The primary types of malignant thyroid neoplasms are papillary carcinoma and follicular carcinoma the latter being more aggressive with a higher likelihood of metastasis According to the most recent Brazilian estimates thyroid cancer is the third most common cancer among women in the Southeast Region Objective to analyze the epidemiological profile of malignant thyroid neoplasms in the Southeast Region of Brazil between 2020 and 2024 Methodology this is a retrospective quantitative epidemiological study based on data from the PANELOncology platform of the Department of Information Technology of the Unified Health System Cases of malignant thyroid neoplasms in the Southeast Region from 2020 to 2024 were analyzed Variables included federative unit sex age group therapeutic modality and year of diagnosis Data were tabulated in Microsoft Excel and analyzed using descriptive statistics Results the analysis identified 17592 cases of malignant thyroid neoplasms The state of São Paulo accounted for 72 of the cases followed by Minas Gerais with 155 Distribution by sex revealed a higher prevalence in women who represented 86 of the cases In terms of age the most affected group was between 50 and 64 years old Regarding treatment 376 of cases were managed surgically while chemotherapy and radiotherapy were less commonly used Conclusion there is a high prevalence of malignant thyroid neoplasms in the Southeast Region of Brazil particularly in São Paulo A notable disparity exists between the incidence in women and men Surgery was the predominant treatment modality however the lack of comprehensive data limits further analysis Therefore it is crucial to examine data from other regions of the country to improve infrastructure optimize resources and develop targeted treatment strategies
