The objective of this study was to verify the presence of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis in the municipality of Buriticupu, located in the Amazon Maranhense. Intradermics tests were conducted with paracoccidioidine in 491 individuals, with 60 intradermics positive to the antigen. There was no statistically significant difference in the sample in relation to the positive test and the variables gender, socio culturals habits and level of education, although describe, the female has been the most frequent, totaling 33 patients, and that positive - reagents have habits that provide contact with the pathogen, and it was found to be the prevailing levels of schooling illiteracy (18 tested) and 1 st degree incomplete (26 tested). Fifty-one patients testing positive for intradermics to paracoccidoidine (85%) were the natural state of Maranhão. In reviewing the clinical data and laboratory records in general of the six patients diagnosed with the disease paracoccidioidomycosis, found that all were farmers with more than 10 years of residence in Buriticupu, with the presence of the fungus in the oral mucosa scraped the colouring of PAS and Gomori - Groccot, except for two patients: one with 36 months of treatment and another with 12 months of therapy, and without injury initial oral or later, both without reports of abandonment of treatment. We, therefore, that the exfoliative cytology is an easy way and low cost in aid of therapeutic control of patients.

Inquérito com paracoccidiodina em cinco cidades do Estado do Acre
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-09-30) FIGUEIREDO, Mediã Barbosa; ISHAK, Ricardo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5621101706909450
Paracoccidioidomycosis constitutes an important public health problem in Latin America. In Brazil, this disease is less frequent in North and Northeast regions, predominating the endemic areas in the Southeast. Despite the physiographic conditions of the North region favoring the development of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, even so, the case reports are scarce. Perhaps this is due to the little consideration of deep mycoses about the differential diagnosis of chronic medical conditions, justified by the fact that the region is not considered endemic. With the objective of describing the prevalence of paracoccidioidomycosis in five cities of Acre, a cross-sectional population-based study was conducted, through a survey with the paracoccidioidin intradermal. The reading of the intradermal test was performed within 24 and 48 hours, being considered reactors the people with hardened areas of 5mm or more in diameter. Four hundred thirty-nine (439) people were studied and paracoccidiodomycosis-infection in the 48-hour reading was 41.2%. The findings of this study indicate that P. brasiliensis infection causes a considerable number of people in the study area to get infected, and therefore future clinical-epidemiological and mycological studies should better clarify the natural history of mycosis in this region.
