Objective: To describe two severe cases of congenital toxoplasmosis in infants born to chronically infected mothers who did not receive education or information on the prevention of gestational toxoplasmosis during prenatal care.
Case Description: The mothers had a previous serological diagnosis of toxoplasmosis conducted during prenatal care, with non-reactive (<10 IU/mL) IgM and reactive IgG (>10 IU/mL), and were considered "immune" to the infection. Both infants were born with sequelae of the congenital infection, including neurological and ocular alterations.
