The high incidence and mortality rates of prostate cancer make it essential to study its epidemiological profile to support more effective public health policies. This study aimed to analyze and compare the epidemiological profile of prostate cancer in the Federal District and the state of Goiás, considering variables such as incidence, hospitalizations, and mortality. This is a quantitative, descriptive, and retrospective study based on secondary data obtained from the InfoSaúdeDF platform, covering the period from 2019 to 2025. The results showed that the Federal District recorded 513 hospitalizations due to prostate cancer, while Goiás registered 60 in the same period. The highest concentration of cases occurred among men aged 60 to 69 years, and deaths were more frequent in individuals aged 80 years or older. Deaths were predominant among white individuals, followed by mixed-race individuals. The differences between the regions may be related to healthcare infrastructure, screening coverage, and data quality. It was concluded that the Federal District presents better indicators due to greater access to specialized services, whereas Goiás faces structural challenges and regional inequalities. The findings highlight the importance of early detection and equitable access to men's healthcare.
