Vertical transmission of toxoplasmosis from a chronically infected immunocompetent woman

Laurent Kodjikian et al. Pediatr Infect Dis J. 2004 Mar.

We report the vertical transmission of congenital toxoplasmosis from a chronically infected immunocompetent woman to her child. On the background of published knowledge in this field, vertical transmission must have developed after maternal reinfection or reactivation of the preexisting disease.
