[Congenital toxoplasmosis: a new case of infection during pregnancy in an previously immunized and immunocompetent woman].
Congenital toxoplasmosis is a potentially serious infection which usually affects infants born to non immune women.


METHODS
Our case report focuses on a baby born to a normally immunocompetent woman previously immunized against toxoplasmosis. To our knowledge only three similar cases have been published until now.


CONCLUSIONS
We conclude that in front of a patient neonatal congenital infection picture, toxoplasmosis cannot be excluded on the ground of maternal immunity status and must be quickly investigated, given the emergency of appropriate treatment.
