ABSTRACT
Los teratomas son tumores que se originan a partir de células pluripotenciales, cuya característica es la de reproducir tejidos de morfología y origen muy diferentes. Histológicamente se dividen en maduro, inmaduro y monodérmico. Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 66 años que presenta un adenocarcinoma mucinoso intestinal sobre teratoma maduro quístico del ovario, asociado a pseudomixoma intestinal, lo cual es extremadamente poco frecuente (AU)
Teratomas are tumors arising from pluripotential cells, which are able to reproduce tissues with highly different morphology and origin. Histologically, these tumors can be divided into mature, immature and monodermal. We present the case of a 66-year-old woman with intestinal mucinous adenocarcinoma (with pseudomyxoma peritonei) in association with a mature cystic teratoma. This association is extremely rare (AU)

A national seroepidemiological survey was carried out to assess the prevalence of anti-Toxoplasma gondii antibodies. 8863 samples taken in filter paper through the ELISA test were analyzed and 29.70% positivity was obtained. No significant differences were found regarding sex. Seropositivity increased with age, up to the 20-29 age group, with a stable behavior in over-29-year age groups. The highest percentage of annual change was registered in the 5-9 age group (1.62%). This parameter reached 0.93% in the women's 25-29 age group.
