Objective: To describe the epidemiology and spatial distribution of tuberculosis in the incarcerated population in the state of Mato Grosso, from 2014 to 2020.
Method: Descriptive study, with spatial analysis of the geographical distribution of tuberculosis. The incidences were estimated, evaluating their distributions in the municipalities of Mato Grosso - Brazil through the analysis of spatial clusters Gi*.
Results: 14.0% (n=1,003) of the 7,201 tuberculosis cases reported between 2014 and 2020 in adults occurred in the incarcerated population. The incidence of tuberculosis in this population decreased from 3,261.1 to 722.3 cases per 100,000 inhabitants between 2014 and 2020. Men aged 18-39, of brown race/color and with incomplete elementary education were associated with a higher occurrence of tuberculosis.
Conclusion: High-risk clusters were found in the central and southern regions of the state, near municipalities with a higher number of prisons. The study contributes to the formation of public health policies and strategies for controlling Tuberculosis.
