Abstract: In recent years, Brazil has seen a growing increase in the number of new cases of cancer, and it is important to highlight the social and economic impact generated by the disease. With this, the importance of describing the epidemiology of cancer in the municipality of Várzea Alegre - CE was realized as for the of the main types of neoplasms that caused the most deaths in the municipality in the last five years. This is a retrospective study, with a quantitative approach, carried out using secondary data about the types of neoplasms that resulted in deaths in the municipality of Várzea Alegre - CE. When the data was explored, it was observed that the types that stood out most were deaths due to primary tumors of: stomach, bronchioles/lungs, breast, prostate, esophagus and liver. When we checked the main type of cancer that affected men and women, we observed that for women it was bronchioles/lungs and for men it was stomach cancer. Given the above, it can be concluded that cancer in Várzea Alegre - CE has a vast variability in terms of type, in addition, its epidemiological profile has a clear difference between male and female individuals.
