ResumoO presente estudo teve por objetivo descrever os aspectos da vigilância epidemiológica dos pacientes vítimas de mordedura em São Luís-MA, 2009 e 2010se de um estudo retrospectivo, quantitativo e do tipo descritivo. Os dados foram coletados do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN) e através das Fichas de Notificação e Investigação de atendimento antirrábico humano. Coletaram-se as variáveis: faixa etária, sexo, escolaridade, espécie e condição do animal agressor, tratamento mais utilizado e as unidades de saúde que mais notificaram. Os indivíduos mais atingidos foram do sexo masculino, na faixa etária de 20 a 49 anos e com ensino fundamental. Em relação ao animal agressor a espécie canina estava envolvida no maior número de casos, e a maioria apresentavam-se sadios. Quanto à localização do ferimento, os membros inferiores foram os mais atingidos, e a observação do animal associado à vacina antirrábica humana estavam entre os tratamentos mais realizados. Observou-se uma sobrecarga de algumas unidades de saúde no que se refere às notificações dos casos o que poderia acarretar dificuldades no atendimento as vítimas de mordedura e preenchimento incorreto das fichas de notificação.
