Question 1 of 1
1. Question
Which of the following is a protozoan infection that can lead to lesions in the eye if it is acquired congenitally (in utero)?
Correct
Answer & Explanation:
The answer is D
Explanation:
Toxoplasmosis, the infection caused by Toxoplasma gondii, is usually mild, although, when acquired during pregnancy, can be transmitted to the fetus resulting in abortion, stillbirth, or neonatal disease (chorioretinitis, blindness, encephalitis, and hepatosplenomegaly). Malaria, associated with Plasmodia species, leads to a number of issues for the mother and infant when the infection is acquired during pregnancy, but after birth, the issues tend to be more related to the susceptibility to future infections with Plasmodia species Amebiasis is caused by Entamoeba histolytica. Giardia lamblia is responsible for giardiasis, which is a watery diarrhea. Cryptosporidium species infections usually result in a mild, self-limiting diarrhea.

Toxoplasma gondii is usually acquired by ingestion of cysts in undercooked meat or ingestion of cat fecal contamination. Infections are usually mild, although, when acquired during pregnancy, can be transmitted to the fetus resulting in abortion, stillbirth, or neonatal disease (chorioretinitis, blindness, encephalitis, and hepatosplenomegaly).
