Resumo: dc.description.abstractObjective: Analyze the epidemiological distribution of tuberculosis in port regions in the period 2019-2023 in Brazilian territory. Methodology: This is a descriptive, observational study carried out based on data collected from DATASUS in 2024. Results and discussion: 7,148 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis were identified in the following port cities: São Luís, Angra dos Reis, Santos, Paranaguá and Tubarão, with the highest prevalence in the city of São Luís - MA. Among the epidemiological characteristics, we found a prevalence in males, between the ages of 30-49 years, of mixed and black ethnicity and with an education level of 5th to 8th grade of elementary school. This pattern is consistent with the profile of port workers, of which approximately 86.3% are men, of mixed or black ethnicity and manual workers. Conclusion: The results showed a slow and gradual increase in the number of tuberculosis cases in the port regions studied, with a significant increase being observed in 2022 in the Angra dos Reis region, making it necessary to be aware of a possible outbreak. It is necessary to maintain surveillance and adopt measures at the three levels of prevention according to the needs of each region in order to reduce the spread of this pathology.pt_BR
