Resumo(s)
Partindo dos trabalhos de Ferreira Guedes (1952) e Nobre Martins (1954) que surgiram ao A. a possível existência de ancilostomíase autóctone na Ilha de Santiago, foi possível confirmá-la pelo achado de uma percentagem bastante elevada de casos averiguadamente autóctones.
Esta afirmação do A. baseia-se no facto de entre os 329 indíviduos encontrados parasitados, somente 14 tinham saído da ilha, para locais onde se conhece a existência de Ancilostomíase, como sejam a Ilha Brava, S. Tomé e Princípe, Guiné, Angola ou Moçambique. Portanto só 4,2% dos ancilostomados teve oportunidade de se infectar fora da Ilha, o que prova de modo irrefutável a fixação da Ancilostomíase em Santiago.

Cette affirmation de l’auteur est basée au fait de que parmi les 329 individus trovés parasités seulement 14 avaient sort de I’lle Brava, S. Tomé et Princípe, Guineé, Angola ou Mozambique. Seulement un pourcentage de 4,2 % des malades avec Anchylostomiase a eu donc l’opportunité d’être infecté hors de I’lle, ce qui preuve d’une manière irréfutable la fixation de l’Anchylostomiase dans Santiago.
Based on the works of Ferreira Guedes (1952) and Nobre Martins (1954) which have suggested to the author the probable existance of autochtonous hook worm disease in the Island of Santiago, it was possible to confirm it by the finding of a very high percentage of cases of confirmed autochtonous origin. This affirmation of the author is based on the fact that among the 329 individuals who were infected, only 14 had been out of the Island, to places where the existence of hook worm disease is known, as the Island Brava, S. Tomé and Princípe, Guinea, Angola or Mozambique, therefore apercentage of 4,2% of the patients infested by hook worm had the opportunity of being infected outside of the Island, which proves undoubtedly the permanence of the hook worm infection in Santiago.
