Resumo: This study investigated cases of leprosy among indigenous population of the micro-region of Alto Jurua River/State of Acre. We evaluated leprosy cases reported by the Information System for Notifiable Diseases (SINAN) as well as their contacts among indigenous population from 2009 to 2012. Three leprosy cases were identified. Two Puyanawa men,69 and 27 years old, classified as borderline and lepromatous forms, with disability grade I and II, respectively. The third case was detected in Nawa ethnicity and was a female, under 15 years. The diagnosis was not confirmed in twelve contacts that were evaluated for suspicion of the disease. The studied Indians are embedded in environmental and social conditions favorable to development of leprosy. Probably, there is a focus in Ipiranga village and an indication of high endemicity area, once leprosy was detected in an under 15 year-old girl. The epidemiological assessment and diagnostic accuracy for the diagnosis of disease in this population are priorities.

Foram identificados três casos em indígenas, sendo dois do sexo masculino com 69 e 27 anos, do povo Puyanawa, classificados como multibacilares com forma clínica dimorfa e virchowiana e grau de incapacidade I e II, respectivamente. O caso do povo Nawa foi do sexo feminino com 15 anos de idade, classificado como paucibacilar. Doze contactantes foram avaliados para investigação da doença, que foi afastada em todos. Os indígenas estudados estão inseridos em condições ambientais, esgotamento sanitário e condições sociais favoráveis ao desenvolvimento da hanseníase. Há possível persistência de foco na aldeia Ipiranga, além do indicativo de alta endemicidade pela detecção da doença em indivíduo menor de 15 anos, apontando necessidade de avaliação epidemiológica e busca ativa de casos para o diagnóstico da doença nestes povos.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/3618410.47878/hi.2014.v39.36184Hansenologia Internationalis: leprosy and other infectious diseases; Vol. 39 No. 2 (2014); 47-54Hansenologia Internationalis: hanseníase e outras doenças infecciosas; v. 39 n. 2 (2014); 47-541982-5161reponame:Hansenologia Internationalis (Online)instname:Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)instacron:ILSLporhttps://periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br/hansenologia/article/view/36184/34491https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTeles, Stéfanie FerreiraTomimori, JaneOliveira, LavíniaRodrigues, DouglasSilva, Romeu Paulo MartinsFlorian, Marcos CésarGamba, Mônica Antar2023-01-18T17:33:49Zoai:ojs.periodicos.saude.sp.gov.br:article/36184Revistahttps://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:2023-01-18T17:33:49Hansenologia Internationalis (Online) - Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima (ILSL)false
