[Neurotoxoplasmosis in the immunosuppressed child. Apropos of 2 cases].
About 2 cases reports, the authors stress on the principal characteristics of neurotoxoplasmosis : neurologic and/or febrile symptoms in a immuno-compromised patient with predominantly a deficient cellular mediated immunity. Cerebrospinal fluid, electroencephalographic and tomodensitometric abnormalities. Importance of serology in the survey of high-risk patients. Bad prognosis of acute clinical pictures. Potential regression of subacute and chronic forms.
