Given the economic importance of beef for the state of Mato Grosso which is the largest producer of beef cattle in the country and stands out on the international scene as one of the largest producers in the world, This study aimed to conduct a literature review on the prevalence of conviction for bovine cysticercosis in the period of one year from July 1, 2022 to July 1, 2023 in slaughterhouses-slaughterhouses in the state of Mato Grosso, under Federal Inspection. According to official data collected from the SIF information system regarding the condemnation of bovine carcasses with parasitosis, from a total of 4,954,293 slaughtered cattle, 25 (0.0005%) were totally condemned with cysticercosis, if compared to other causes, cysticercosis represented 2.37% of cases. As data on the system of animal husbandry were not collected, it can be said that the low prevalence may be an indication that the measures of prophylaxis and sanitary control of animals are being fulfilled efficiently, since man is the disseminator of this parasite in the environment. The technique of post-mortem inspection performed by sanitary inspection is considered an important method to prevent the perpetuation of the parasite cycle, preserving consumer health and reducing the risk of environmental contamination. Cysticercosis causes economic losses resulting from the total condemnation of carcasses and also from the conditional treatment of carcasses by cold or heat, and in these cases, carcasses, although not condemned, generate costs and cannot be exported, impacting international meat trade. Despite the findings of this study indicate that the rates have not been so high, the literature cites that cysticercosis is the zoonosis most often found in slaughterhouses, reiterating the importance of sanitary inspection carried out in slaughterhousesas an important preventive method, preventing unfit carcasses from being marketed.
