[congenital toxoplasmosis]
The
aim
of
this
study
was
to
determine
the
percentage
of
seropositive
pregnant
women
,
i
.
e
.
of
pregnant
women
infected
with
Toxoplasma
gondii
in
order
to
provide
an
insight
into
the
risk
of
developing
congenital
toxoplasmosis
in
our
community
.
In
the
period
of
two
years
,
662
pregnant
women
from
Vojvodina
were
examined
serologically
.
The
enzyme-linked
immunosorbent
assay
tests
were
performed
to
determine
IgM
and
IgG
antibodies
against
Toxoplasma
gondii
and
the
complement
fixation
test
was
done
to
detect
total
antibodies
against
Toxoplasma
gondii
.
Seropositivity
was
determined
in
180
pregnant
women
(
27
.
19
%
)
.
Of
135
pregnant
women
examined
in
the
routine
control
in
pregnancy
,
16
.
30
%
were
seropositive
and
out
of
five
proven
,
completely
new
Toxoplasma
gondii
intfections
,
three
were
detected
in
pregnant
women
who
had
undergone
the
routine
check-up
for
no
specific
symptoms
.
A
detailed
analysis
of
the
frequency
of
seropositive
findings
in
relation
to
clinical
diagnoses
and
the
place
of
residence
of
pregnant
women
(
urban
and
rural
areas
)
was
performed
.
At
the
same
time
,
the
results
from
the
serological
reactions
were
presented
,
commented
and
interpreted
,
and
recommendations
were
given
for
the
implementation
of
additional
examinations
(
eg
,
IgG
antibody
avidity
test
)
in
order
to
make
the
accurate
diagnosis
.
It
can
be
concluded
that
the
occurrence
of
congenital
toxoplasmosis
is
still
a
problem
in
our
community
and
that
the
best
prevention
is
the
prompt
and
adequate
examination
of
pregnant
women
for
the
presence
of
Toxoplasma
gondii
infection
.
