Abstract
This report highlights the importance to follow up newborns at risk of congenital toxoplasmosis with specific and newborn-appropriate techniques until Toxoplasma-IgG titers are completely negative. This allows not only the exclusion of congenital toxoplasmosis when serology becomes negative, but also the diagnosis and treatment of congenital toxoplasmosis when infection is detected later in development.
