  • Title: Congenital toxoplasmosis after a preconceptional or periconceptional maternal infection.
    Author: Robert-Gangneux F, Yera H, D'Herve D, Guiguen C.
    Journal: Pediatr Infect Dis J; 2009 Jul; 28(7):660-1. PubMed ID: 19561432.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of asymptomatic congenital toxoplasmosis following a periconceptional infection of the mother. Fetal infection is very uncommon in such a situation, and mostly associated with fetal damage. We recommend that newborns undergo postnatal screening, even after maternal periconceptional infection, and receive specific therapy to reduce long-term sequelae.
