Abstract

In this review the editor is explained because it can not be assumed that when there are peri macular lesions of toxoplasmosis, the only way to say that it is acquired is when there is IgM + and IgG - and then there are positive IgG + titers. Therefore, it can not be defined if it is acquired or congenital by the retinal lesions
