Abstract Objective: To analyze mortality rates due to mental and behavioral disorders (MBD) and external causes (EC) using Vital Statistics of Argentina, 2000-2009. Methods: Mortality data 2000-2009 were obtained from the Bureau of Statistics and Information, Ministry of Health, Argentina. General and specific rates were set up. Population estimates were obtained from the AGEINT application. According to the distribution of the variable, analysis of variance or nonparametric tests were used. Results: Dissimilar MBD mortality rates according to sex were observed, but with a similar pattern each year. The MBD and EC affect the adult population of the country, with higher rates in the male group. Conclusion: Taking into account the impact of MBD and EC, allows the design of public policies suitable to the realities of each health context.
