Abstract
We present the case of a newborn from a mother infected with Toxoplasma gondii during pregnancy. Born alive, the baby presented multiple organ failures, which in the end, despite of the treatment, led to his death. This case report is very instructive, and proves once again not only the necessity of assessing the possible teratogenic infections in pregnant women, but also the key role of prenatal investigations and of the risk factors.
