  abstract = {{E}stuaries in {B}razil are mostly anthropically affected due to the discharge of industrial and domestic effluents. {I}n two of them, the {S}anta {C}ruz {C}hannel {E}stuary ({ITAP}) and {S}irinhaem {R}iver {E}stuary ({SIR}), historically affected by mercury pollution and sugarcane industry in {N}ortheast {B}razil, we assessed environmental pollution using liver and gill histopathological biomarkers in fish from different trophic levels. {L}iver samples exhibited serious damages such as hepatic steatosis, necrosis, and infiltration. {T}he gills showed moderate to severe changes, such as lifting of epithelial cells, lamellar aneurysm, and rupture of lamellar epithelium. {M}ost of the changes in the liver and gills were reported for species {C}entropomus undecimalis and the {G}obionellus stomatus, which were considered as good sentinels of pollution. {T}he combination of biomarker methodologies was efficient in diagnosing the serious damage to the species, reinforcing the need for monitoring the health of the ecosystems evaluated.},
