American cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL) is a zoonosis caused by Leishmania genus flagellates. ACL develop in man when he enters zoonotic areas in deforestation and extractivism sites. In Brazil, ACL has an endemic character and it is distributed in all states of the country. In Amazonas, according to the State Department of Health data (2005), the municipalities of Manaus and Rio Preto da Eva are the first and second cities, respectively, in number of cases. In Rio Preto da Eva, about 80% cases of ACL derive from rural settlements along the AM-010 road. In Rio Preto da Eva’s hospital, 113 cases of ACL were diagnosed from 141 examined patients from all ages and both sexes. The patients consisted predominantly of males (68.1%), with ages varying between 20 and 39 years old (40.4%), and farmers (49.1%). All patients presented cutaneous lesions, mainly in lower extremities (36.2%). New studies to map risk areas, as well as the identification of the causing and transmitting agents of ACL, may help to recommend more effective proposals for the control of this disease.
