Resumo: Objective: To describe the epidemiological situation of leprosy in the State of Acre. Method: It is a retrospective, descriptive study carried out in the State of Acre using the Information System Database on Notifiable Diseases with a quantitative approach during the period of 2004-2012. Results: 2 691 cases of leprosy were recorded, 60.6% male, older than 15 years (90.1%), brown (81.2%), incomplete primary education (55.9%), from a rural area (61.4%). 49% of cases were classified as borderline patients, 80.2% were grade of disability zero at diagnosis. In 2011from only 478 out of 2146 registered contacts were evaluated. Conclusion: Despite the predominance of grade of disability zero at the time of diagnosis, the high number of borderline patients and the low percentage of active search for contacts may indicate maintenance of the transmission and high rates of hidden prevalence of leprosy, which refers to operational difficulties faced by the health services to perform early diagnosis.

Método: Estudo descritivo, retrospectivo, com abordagem quantitativa realizado no estado do Acre por meio do banco de dados do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação no período de 2004-2012. Resultados: Foram registrados 2691 casos de hanseníase. 60,6% no sexo masculino, com idade maior que 15 anos (90,1%), cor parda (81,2%), ensino fundamental incompleto (55,9%), procedentes da zona rural (61,4%). 49% dos casos apresentaram forma clínica dimorfa, 80,2% grau de incapacidade zero no momento do diagnóstico. Em 2011 dos 2146 contatos registrados apenas 478 foram avaliados. Conclusão: Apesar do predomínio do grau de incapacidade física ser zero no momento do diagnóstico, a presença marcante da forma clínica dimorfa, o baixo percentual de busca ativa dos contactantes podem indicar manutenção da cadeia de transmissão e alta prevalência oculta da hanseníase, o que remete a uma dificuldade operacional dos serviços de saúde em realizar o diagnóstico precoce.Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima da Secretaria de Estado da Saúde de São Paulo2014-11-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/3618010.47878/hi.2014.v39.36180Hansenologia Internationalis: leprosy and other infectious diseases; Vol. 39 No. 2 (2014); 19-26Hansenologia Internationalis: hanseníase e outras doenças infecciosas; v. 39 n. 2 (2014); 19-261982-5161reponame:Hansenologia Internationalis (Online)instname:Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)instacron:ILSLporhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/36180/34488https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Marina de SouzaSilva, Elsany Pereira daMonteiro, Fabíola FreireTeles, Stéfanie Ferreira2023-01-18T17:30:04Zoai:ojs.periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br:article/36180Revistahttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologiaPRIhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/oaihansen_int@ilsl.br || hansenologia.internationalis@gmail.com || periodicossp@saude.sp.gov.br1982-51610100-3283opendoar:2023-01-18T17:30:04Hansenologia Internationalis (Online) - Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)false
