| Sumario: | Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with a strong genetic component and a high prevalence of comorbidities. The objective of this study was to identify the most prevalent comorbidities in individuals diagnosed with ASD.A descriptive, retrospective, observational, and cross-sectional study was conducted with a quantitative approach. Sixty-three medical records of patients with a confirmed diagnosis of ASD, regularly followed up at the outpatient clinic at the Reference Center in Goiânia-Goiás, were analyzed. The data collected were presented in absolute values and percentages. Most patients were male (68.25%) and belonged to the age group between 1 and 15 years (87.3%). Regarding origin, 65.08% were from the interior of the state of Goiás. Thirty-four comorbidities associated with ASD were identified, the most frequent being: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) (41.27%), Intellectual Deficit (22.22%), Global Developmental Delay and Epilepsy (both with 15.87%). It was noted that 47.62% of the patients had at least one comorbidity and 18.97% had more than two comorbidities. The data highlight the clinical complexity of ASD, especially regarding the presence of comorbidities, reinforcing the need for a multidisciplinary and individualized. |
