Objetivo: interpretar los significados atribuidos a la supervivencia al cáncer entre enfermos adultos y adultos mayores. Método: estudio exploratorio de enfoque cualitativo con método narrativo y referencial de la antropología médica. En el estudio participaron catorce personas adultas y de edad avanzada que habían completado el tratamiento primario durante, al menos, tres meses en un hospital universitarioy tenían un diagnóstico de cáncer urológico (vejiga, próstata, rihón, testículos). Se realizo una entrevista semiestructurada en los hogares de los participantes entre octubre de 2014 y noviembre de 2015 y, después de su transcripción, los datos se analizaron de acuerdo con el análisis temático inductivo. Resultados: luego del análisis e interpretación de datos, se obtuvieron dos categorías principales: desde la pérdida de autocontrol y la incertidumbre de la recurrencia de la enfermedad hasta la vigilancia corporal; y el secreto de la supervivencia al cáncer: el sentimiento de optimismo y esperanza. Conclusión: después de la interpretación de los sentidos, se hizo evidente que la supervivencia al cáncer es un proceso impregnado de pérdida de autocontrol, incertidumbre, miedo a la recurrencia, asociado con la multimorbilidad y la vigilancia, pero que tarde o temprano puede llevar al sobreviviente al crecimiento personal, valorado más la vida y siendo optimista.
