We conducted a ten-years retrospective study in 347 symptomatic individuals to assess the regional distribution of leptospirosis. 173 were diagnosed positive (49.8%): 11.5% were MAT-positive, while 38.3% were found positive to Leptospira by microscopy analysis. The maximum peak of leptospirosis was reached in 2017 (n=32). The most common serovars were Icterohaemorragiae and Poi. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract

We conducted a ten-years retrospective study in 347 symptomatic individuals to assess the regional distribution of leptospirosis. 173 were diagnosed positive (49.8%): 11.5% were MAT-positive, while 38.3% were found positive to Leptospira by microscopy analysis. The maximum peak of leptospirosis was reached in 2017 (n=32). The most common serovars were Icterohaemorragiae and Poi. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
