Abstrakt     The course of acute toxoplasmosis is most frequently asymptomatic, only in about 10% of infected persons is it manifested with a clinical picture of lymphadenopathy and subfebrility. Acute toxoplasmosis is not transmitted from one person to another except from mother to fetus during pregnancy. The consequences of fetal infection can be extremely severe-eyesight or central nervous system malformations and affection of other organic systems. Slovenia introduced a legally prescribed compulsory serological screening programme for Toxoplasma gondii antibodies in 1995. Every diagnosed case of recent infection in pregnancy, congentital toxoplasmosis, as well as other cases of acute toxoplasmosis must be reported. Over a period of 11 years, 234 cases of toxoplasmosis were reported, about two thirds of these cases in women. The number of reported congenital toxoplasmosis cases was extremely low (only 7 cases). The data available are deficient, and enable no proper evaluation of the effectiveness of screening for toxoplasmosis nor insight into the empidemiology of this disease in Slovenia.
