[Neonatal cholestasis due to congenital toxoplasmosis. Case report].
[congenital toxoplasmosis]
Neonatal
cholestasis
is
the
manifestation
of
many
different
diseases
.
Its
early
etiological
diagnosis
is
crucial
,
since
treatment
before
60
days
of
life
changes
the
prognosis
in
children
with
biliary
atresia
.
Congenital
toxoplasmosis
can
be
asymptomatic
in
the
newborn
,
or
have
mainly
neurological
,
ophthalmological
or
gastrointestinal
symptoms
(
hepatomegaly
,
cholestatic
jaundice
)
.
Neonatal
cholestasis
secondary
to
congenital
toxoplasmosis
is
not
a
situation
frequently
reported
.
We
report
the
case
of
an
infant
with
neonatal
cholestasis
due
to
a
congenital
toxoplasmosis
,
in
order
to
discuss
the
difficulties
in
establishing
the
etiological
diagnostic
and
to
review
the
indications
of
invasive
studies
such
as
liver
biopsy
in
these
situations
.
