It is necessary to consider the incidence, prevalence and mortality of this disease with a regional approach, so the objective of this work is to describe the epidemiological behavior of this tumor in the departments of the Colombian Caribbean Region during the period 2018 to 2021. MethodologyDescriptive, retrospective study. Data from a secondary source (Cuenta de Alto Costo) was taken through the Higia platform. Rates x 100,000 of proportion of new cases reported, prevalence and incidence, by departments are analyzed. Data was imported from a downloadable.csv file into Excel and then into SPSS V22. ResultsThe indicators analyzed showed a heterogeneous behavior in the 8 departments of the Region. Atlantico and Bolivar were the departments with similar and higher figures in the 4 years observed than those of the country and there were atypical values in San Andres. La Guajira was the only department with a sustained tendency to increase in incidence, prevalence and mortality.
