OBJETIVO: Apresentar levantamento estatístico descritivo da leishmaniose tegumentar americana (LTA) no Estado do Acre. MÉTODOS: Os dados obtidos foram extraídos dos formulários da "Campanha Contra a Leishmaniose", no período de janeiro de 1992 a dezembro de 1997. As variáveis estudadas foram submetidas a análise estatística descritiva. RESULTADOS: O total de casos registrados foi de 2.557. Foi adotada a divisão do Acre em meso e microrregiões para apresentação dos resultados. A maior prevalência foi na microrregião de Brasiléia (231,8 casos/10.000 hab.). A forma clínica predominante foi cutânea (84,05%). A maior ocorrência foi no sexo masculino (71,02%). Portadores com idade de até 24 anos corresponderam a 50% dos casos. Há uma predominância nas ocupações rurais. O exame clínico foi usado para diagnosticar 83,97% dos casos. A maior média de tempo de espera para procurar tratamento médico foi registrada na mesorregião do Vale do Juruá (10,37 meses). CONCLUSÃO: Os altos índices de LTA cutâneo e cutâneo-mucosa encontrados sugerem a necessidade de serem feitas pesquisas sobre os reflexos psicossociais e para identificar fatores que influem na demora do tratamento dos casos.
