Due to the high endemicity of Hansens Disease in the "Duque de Caxias Municipality", Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, an Epidemiological Survey of "Vila Nova" slum was planed. The goal was to verify the prevalence of skin diseases of sanitary concern and, also, to analise the socio-economical conditions of the population, especially those related with environment sanitation. 45% dwellings were visited and 86% of the population (1903 persons) screened by dermoneurological examination performed by auxiliary personnel. Tables show frequency of skin disease that received treatment on domiciliary basis. 19 cases were suspicious of Hansen's Disease. The social profile was assessed through the study of several parameters of the population: --economical, sanitation, personal and home hygiene.
