Justificación y Objetivos: El posible impacto de la COVID-19 en las intervenciones y programas de vigilancia, como el de la leishmaniasis tegumentaria, durante el primer año de la pandemia, ayuda a comprender las consecuencias de la pandemia en los sistemas de notificación, con el fin de subsidiar las acciones inmediatas de política pública y educación para la salud, además de resaltar la necesidad de implementar nuevas estrategias para fortalecer los servicios de vigilancia epidemiológica. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar el posible impacto de la pandemia de COVID-19 en el número de registros de casos de leishmaniasis tegumentaria en Maranhão, Brasil. Métodos: Se trata de un estudio ecológico de los casos confirmados de leishmaniasis tegumentaria desde enero de 2015 hasta diciembre de 2020. Los datos se obtuvieron del Sistema de Información de Enfermedades de Declaración Obligatoria. Se utilizó la métrica P-score para evaluar los posibles subregistros de leishmaniasis tegumentaria. Resultados: Entre 2015 y 2020, se registraron 7.886 nuevos casos de la enfermedad. Para 2020 se esperaban 1.346 casos, pero se notificaron 1.158, lo que representa una disminución del 13,94%. Los centros regionales de salud de São Luís, São João dos Patos y Presidente Dutra presentaron las mayores caídas en los posibles nuevos casos esperados. Conclusión: Los desafíos en el diagnóstico de los casos de leishmaniasis tegumentaria parecen haberse intensificado en el contexto de la COVID-19 en Maranhão, lo que señala una alerta importante para los servicios y gestores de salud.
