The university is an entity that allows the generation of knowledge through research, which responds to regional and global needs help making decisions and establishment of policies (1). To do this, universities are organized by research centers, which have lines of research; research thus become sustainable and contextual.

Los tumores de células germinales (TCG) son de origen gonadal o extragonadal, se dividen en seminoma y no seminona. La sobrevida global (SG) a los 5 años para los seminomas es de más del 90% y para los no seminomas alrededor del 45%, pudiendo variar debido a otros factores. El objetivo es evaluar la SG, sobrevida libre de progresión (SLP) y caracterizar clínicamente a los pacientes con TCG entre 2006-2016 del hospital Nacional Edgardo Rebagliati Martins. El diseño de estudio es descriptivo, retrospectivo y de cohorte transversal; se revisará las historias clínicas (HC) de pacientes varones mayores de 18 años, con diagnóstico debut de TCG y con un mínimo de seguimiento de 5 años. Se recabará la información en una ficha de recolección de datos la cual incluye edad, criptorquidia, número de hijos, preservación de espermatozoides, ubicación de tumor primario, sitios de metÃ...

Background: According to GLOBOCAN estimates, in 2020, lung cancer was the second most frequent cancer and epidemiological information is needed in Latin American countries. The objective was to describe the epidemiological and molecular characteristics of lung cancer patients from a referral clinic in Lima, Peru. Material and methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted to characterize the epidemiological and molecular profile of lung cancer patients attended at a referral cancer center in Peru during 2018 to 2021. Variables such as age, sex, histology, staging and mutation were reported. In the descriptive analysis, frequencies and percentages were shown for categorical variables. For numerical variables, the best measure of central tendency and dispersion was reported. Results: A total of 225 patients with a diagnosis of lung cancer were observed. EGFR gene mutation was the most...
