Agribusiness has increasing substantially in the Brazilian Amazon region for the past decade, especially to animal production. Surveys on farm animal diseases are critical for the development of activities related to livestock production; hence, pathogenic agents are one of the most important risk factors concerned with this industry. Our study aimed to survey livestock diseases in Para state (Brazil), diagnosed at Rural Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (SAP/UFRRJ) between 1997 and 2017. Clinical, pathological and epidemiological data were collected through a criterious analysis of necropsy and/or biopsy reports im farm animals from the Brazilian Amazon region. All slides were evaluated to assess or confirm the diagnosis. Histochemical, immunohistochemistry and molecular techniques were applied in inconclusive cases in order to establish a definitive diagnosis. Conclusive cases were sorted by species, etiology, and organic system involvement. Data were collected and displayed in tables and graphics. Between January 1997 and June 2017, we evaluated 488 cases in livestock from the Para state, which yielded 520 diagnose. About 38, 5% (188/488) of those cases belonged to cattle, 23, 4% (144/488) belonged to buffaloes, 19, 5% (95/488) belonged to horses, and the remaining 18, 6% (61) belonged to sheep, goats, donkeys and pigs. Retrospective study complied 408 cases; 47 were initially inconclusive. Following a careful analysis of the slides and appliance of modern diagnostic tools, we stablished four diagnostics, and aid ten cases. Real-time study complied 80 cases; only one remained inconclusive. Based at the data received in our Laboratory, we concluded that infectious and inflammatory diseases and mineral deficiencies were the most common assets in livesctock from Para (Brazil).
