[congenital toxoplasmosis]
Two
thirds
of
the
congenital
toxoplasmosis
cases
describe
minimal
or
inapparent
symptoms
present
at
birth
,
being
diagnosed
from
a
psychomotor
retard
.
The
forms
of
chorioretinitis
may
be
described
by
repeated
outbursts
in
the
first
years
of
life
.
Chorioretinitis
or
focal
necrotizing
retinitis
usually
develops
in
a
bilateral
way
,
being
progressive
and
leading
to
blindness
.
Usually
there
is
only
one
focal
inflammatory
beginning
at
the
edge
of
a
pigmented
scar
and
the
local
inflammatory
process
may
extend
through
successive
spikes
in
other
regions
of
the
retina
.
Active
chorioretinitis
is
expressed
clinically
by
a
blurred
misty
eyesight
,
with
the
advent
of
scotomas
,
photophobia
,
and
if
the
macula
is
involved
,
the
loss
of
the
central
eyesight
may
occur
.
In
this
paper
I
present
the
patient
R
.
A
.
,
6
years
old
from
Constanta
who
is
hospitalized
in
the
Clinic
of
Infectious
Diseases
for
investigations
and
treatment
continuity
because
positive
IgG
Toxoplasma
was
previously
found
.
The
child
has
spastic
quadriplegia
and
profound
mental
retardation
.
