Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, Rio de Janeiro, v. 86, n. 5, p. 865-877, 2011.0365-0596http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/16751The development of a Brazilian National Surveillance System in 1975 led to a compulsory reporting of selected infectious diseases aiming to reduce the burden of these events in the country. However, shifts in the epidemiology of these diseases associated with modern life style, demand cons-tant revision of surveillance activities. In this manuscript we present the epidemiology, trends and dif-ferential diagnosis of the following compulsory notifiable diseases in Brazil: Aids, dengue fever, hanse-niasis, American tegumentary leishmaniasis, measles, rubella and congenital rubella syndrome and syp-hilis. Additionally, the current challenges for control and prevention of each disease are presented.porAcesso AbertoVigilância epidemiológicaBrasilDengueHanseníaseRubéolaSarampoSífilisSíndrome de imunodeficiência adquiridaSíndrome da rubéola congênitaSyphilisAcquired immunodeficiency syndromeBrazilDengueEpidemiologic surveillanceLeishmaniasis cutaneousLeprosyMeaslesRubellaRubella syndrome congenitalArtigo10.1590/S0365-05962011000500002
