ABSTRACT

A newborn with hydrocephalus had a positive brain scan. The area of uptake corresponded to a granular infiltrating lesion caused by congenital toxoplasmosis. A search of prior brain scans performed at this center revealed two in which positive scans were seen in adults with evidence of toxoplasmosis, but a cause and effect relationship is not clear.
