Introduction: Colorectal cancer is the third most common neoplasm worldwide, and Colombia is no exception. It is essential to study mortality from this condition in specific regions, as variations have been found even within the same country. The objective is to describe the mortality trends from colorectal cancer in the district of Barranquilla between 1985 and 2020.
Methodology: A descriptive and retrospective study. Non-fetal death records with colorectal cancer as the underlying cause of death were analyzed from the National Administrative Department of Statistics (DANE) website for residents in Barranquilla between 1985 and 2020. Crude mortality rates were calculated for the years studied, along with the annual percentage changes in these rates.
Results: A total of 3,201 deaths from colorectal cancer were recorded, with 59.6% in women and 21.7% in individuals aged 80 years or older. There was an increase in the age-adjusted mortality rate (per 100,000), from 5.1 to 12.7. Overall, there was an upward trend in the annual percentage changes in mortality rates.
Conclusion: An increase in colorectal cancer mortality was observed in the district of Barranquilla. It is necessary to continue this line of research and investigate factors related to this trend.
