Congenital Toxoplasmosis

Seminars in Pediatric Neurology
Toxoplasma gondii, one of the most prevalent zoonotic parasites globally, may be transmitted to the fetus if a primary infection occurs during pregnancy. The earlier the gestational period, the lower the probability of transmission, but if it occurs, the higher the probability of pregnancy loss or severe fetal neurological or ocular damage.
