RESUMO
Foram estudados retrospectivamente os prontuários de 15 pacientes portadores de leishmaniose e 28 pacientes de paracoccidioidomicose, nas formas de acometimento de mucosa oronasofaringolaringeana, atendidos na Escola Paulista de Medicina de 1986 a 1990. Estes pacientes foram comparados com relação às seguintes variáveis: sexo, idade, tempo de evolução da doença, topografia da lesão e queixas clínicas. Sexo, tempo de evolução da doença, topografia de lesão em septo nasal, palatos, língua e lábios, e queixa clínica com relação a dor em cavidade oral, disfagia/odinofagia e obstrução nasal apresentaram diferença estatisticamente significante em sua ocorrência nos dois grupos de pacientes. Os autores consideram estes achados relevantes na diferenciação clínica entre as duas moléstias.

ABSTRACT
We retrospectively evaluated the medical records of 15 patients diagnosed with leishmaniasis and of 28 patients diagnosed with paracoccidiodorrcycosis presenting with involvement of the oral-nasal-pharyngeal mucosa seen at Escola Paulista de Medicina from 1986 through 1990. These patients were compared in regard to the following variables: sex, age, time since disease onset, location of lesion, and clinical complaints. Sex, time since disease onset, lesion at the nasal septum, palate, tongue, and lips, and history of oral pain, dysphagia/ odinophagia, and nasal obstruction were significantly different in the two groups of patients. The authors point out to the relevance of these findings in the differential clinical diagnosis of leishmaniasis and paracoccidiodomycosis.
Keywords: Paracoccidiodomycosis. Leishmaniasis.
