A permutation $π$ is said to be {\em Dumont permutations of the first kind} if each even integer in $π$ must be followed by a smaller integer, and each odd integer is either followed by a larger integer or is the last element of $π$ (see, for example, \cite{Z}). In \cite{D} Dumont showed that certain classes of permutations on $n$ letters are counted by the Genocchi numbers. In particular, Dumont showed that the $(n+1)$st Genocchi number is the number of Dummont permutations of the first kind on $2n$ letters. In this paper we study the number of Dumont permutations of the first kind on $n$ letters avoiding the pattern 132 and avoiding (or containing exactly once) an arbitrary pattern on $k$ letters. In several interesting cases the generating function depends only on $k$.
