Abstract: Cancer is an important global disease, responsible for countless deaths in all countries, in addition to requiring large financial investments in treatments and prevention policies. This paper studied the neoplasms with the highest incidence in the Brazilian male population. The numbers of mortality, morbidity, mortality rate in the four most populous capitals in Brazil were analyzed. It was concluded that Brazil has an efficient anti-smoking policy, as well as good results about awareness campaigns about prostate cancer exams. The results of mortality rates also made evident the differences in the health systems of each state.
