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.
弓形虫病是一种全球性的人畜共患病。然而，葡萄牙的数据有限，且相当一部分文献是葡萄牙语的。目前，葡萄牙先天性感染的发生率尚不清楚，关于先天性弓形虫病后遗症几乎一无所知。葡萄牙近期没有基于普通人群的人类弓形虫血清学调查。此外，关于动物和人类中弓形虫的遗传特征的信息也很少。在本文中，我们综述了葡萄牙人和动物中弓形虫的流行情况、临床谱和流行病学。这些知识对生物学家、公共卫生工作者、医生和兽医应该是有用的。
