Epidemiological review of Toxoplasma gondii infection in humans and animals in Portugal.
[congenital toxoplasmosis]
Toxoplasmosis
is
a
worldwide
zoonosis
.
However
,
data
from
Portugal
are
limited
and
a
considerable
part
of
the
literature
is
in
Portuguese
.
Currently
,
the
rate
of
congenital
infection
in
Portugal
is
unknown
,
and
almost
nothing
is
known
of
sequelae
of
congenital
toxoplasmosis
.
There
is
no
recent
general
population-based
serological
survey
of
Toxoplasma
gondii
in
humans
in
Portugal
.
In
addition
,
there
is
little
information
on
genetic
characteristics
of
T
.
gondii
in
animals
and
humans
.
In
the
present
paper
,
we
review
prevalence
,
clinical
spectrum
and
epidemiology
of
T
.
gondii
in
humans
and
animals
in
Portugal
.
This
knowledge
should
be
useful
to
biologists
,
public
health
workers
,
physicians
and
veterinarians
.
