      Os médicos não dermatologistas muitas vezes têm dificuldade em diagnosticar/conduzir dermatoses prevalentes. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a prevalência destas em uma clínica de assistência à saúde a uma população da Ilha de Marajó, sem médico no município há meses. Dos pacientes atendidos, 36,5% procuraram atenção por um problema dermatológico. São apresentados os diagnósticos feitos. O conhecimento em dermatologia mostrou-se fundamental para a prática clínica do médico não especialista.Doctors who are not specialists in dermatology often have difficulty diagnosing and managing prevalent skin diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of skin diseases during a three-day healthcare clinic conducted with the population of a small town on the island of Marajo where no medical care had been available for months prior to the study. At these medical consultations, 36.5% of patients were seeking help for dermatological problems. This paper describes the diagnoses made in these cases. Knowledge of dermatology has been shown to be crucial in the clinical practice of physicians who are not dermatologists.
