[Toxoplasmosis--parasitosis with a variety of appearances].
By 2008 Toxoplasma gondii will have been known for 100 years as a parasitic protozoan, which is an etiological agent of toxoplasmosis in animals and humans. Despite very intensive research, many biological and medical aspects of the invasion with this parasite have not been satisfactorily explained. In the article, some recent observations on epidemiology, biology, and physical as well as psychical consequences of the Toxoplasma gondii infections were described and commented on.
