Abstract in brief

This study highlights the lack of clear guidelines for breast cancer screening in women over 70 in Brazil, showing a reduction in screening rates and an increase in more advanced cancer stages in this age group.
Data analysis from 2013 to 2019 reveals that fewer women over 70 are being screened, and those who are diagnosed tend to have more advanced stages of cancer, indicating possible issues in early detection.
Given Brazil's aging population and the variability among older women, the authors argue that the current screening recommendations need to be re-evaluated to improve public health policies for this demographic.]
