[Toxoplasmosis. Clinical, radiological and pathological aspects. Report of 44 cases].

Forty four cases of toxoplasmosis seen in a 20 years span are reviewed. The largest number of cases corresponded to the neonatal group. The most important clinical findings usually involve the central nervous system, reticulum endothelium, skin and eyes. The disease is compared to an equivalent group of congenital lues (Torch complex). Clinical and radiological criteria for the differentiation are established. The most important finding is the presence of intracraneal calcifications. The different patterns and distribution are discussed. The radiologist plays an important role in the diagnosis of this condition, particularly, in the neonatal group of patients where the incidence of intravenous calcification appears to be higher.
