The remarkable pioneering contribution of Gaspar Vianna to the study of the neuropathology of Chagas disease

ABSTRACT Gaspar Vianna is considered one of the great names in Medicine and Science in Brazil. Yet, little prominence has been given to his studies in Neuropathology. He was the first to describe, in 1911, the histopathology and pathogenesis of chagasic encephalitis in the acute phase of Chagas disease, as well as the intracellular life cycle of Trypanosoma cruzi. Over 100 years have elapsed and Gaspar Vianna's pioneering study remains an example of a meticulous and still up-to-date description of central nervous system involvement in the acute phase of Chagas disease.


RESUMO Gaspar Vianna é considerado um dos grandes nomes da Medicina e da Ciência no Brasil. Contudo, pouco destaque tem sido dado aos seus estudos em Neuropatologia. Ele foi o primeiro a descrever a histopatologia e a patogênese da encefalite chagásica na fase aguda da doença de Chagas, bem como o ciclo evolutivo intracelular do Trypanosoma cruzi, em 1911. Passados mais de 100 anos, o estudo pioneiro de Gaspar Vianna permanece como exemplo de descrição minuciosa e ainda atual do envolvimento do sistema nervoso central na fase aguda da doença de Chagas.
