Abstract
Background:Chagasdisease(Americantrypanosomiasis)isazoonoticoranthropozoonoticdiseasecausedbytheparasite
Trypanosoma cruzi. Predominantly affecting populations in poor areas of Latin America, medical care for this neglected
diseaseisoftenlacking.Me′decins SansFrontie`res/DoctorsWithoutBorders(MSF)hasprovideddiagnosticandtreatment

Methodology:From1999to2008,MSFprovidedfreediagnosis,etiologicaltreatment,andfollow-upcareforpatients,18
