The aim of this study was to determine mortality trends from (CNS) tumors, nationwide by state and socioeconomic region and determine the risk of died from (CNS) tumors according to the level of education in the period 2000-2017. Materials and Methods: Mortality records associates to central nervous system tumors were obtained of the National Institute of Statistics and Geography for the period 2000-2017.

The 65-69 age group had the highest number of deaths with 3,370 (9.8%). Conclusions: In the study period age-adjusted mortality rates per 100,000 habitants increased from 1.9 to 2.1.
