RESUMEN
Se revisa someramente la epidemiologia del sindrome TORCH en Colombia. Se enumeran los metodos de diagnostico inmunologico disponibles para las diferentes entidades y se describe detenidamente la tecnica de Elisa. Se hace enfasis en la importancia de la deteccion de IgM especifica mediante la tecnica de inmunocaptura, como un marcador de infeccion de fase aguda y se introduce el concepto de la deteccion de IgA especifica, igualmente mediante inmunocaptura, como un marcador de infeccion aguda de mayor sensibilidad y especificidad que la misma IgM.
