RESUMO
Más del 80% de las embarazadas cursarán en forma asintomática su primoinfección por Toxoplasma gondii y por ello el diagnóstico es serológico. Este control serológico debe ser realizado de rutina con el fin de ofrecerle tratamiento oportuno y así, reducir la tasa de transmisión vertical o, si la infección ya se produjo, para reducir el daño en el feto.

An analytic relationship between positivity of the indirect immunofluorescent test (IIFT) for toxoplasmosis and clinical findings in a population of 328 children with cerebral infantile palsy (CIP) was performed. Children were distributed by age in one of four groups: I (0-2 years); II (3-6 years); III (7-12 years) and IV (13-18 years). One control group of 168 children with no PCI clinical findings was included. 125 sera were positive at 1:64 dilutions.The study of the binomial mother-child of 40 cases rendered 26 mothers with significant titer values. The majority of positive mothers to IIFT correlated with the youngest children (Groups I, II and III), mainly with group I (70.0 percent), which showed the highest titer ranges. Correlation between positive IIFT and clinical features was as high as 100.0 percent
