Resumen

El Toxoplasma gondii es un protozoario intracelular que infecta aves y mamíferos. La infección aguda es asintomática en pacientes inmunocompetentes. En pacientes con deficiencia inmunológica (síndrome de la inmunodeficiencia adquirida, linfomas o pacientes sometidos a terapia con corticoides para prevención de rechazo de transplante de órganos) la infección puede ser fatal

Nosotros describimos un caso poco común de toxoplasmosis testicular en paciente sometido a transplante renal hace 6 años con serología negativa para el virus VIH y sin toxoplasmosis sistémica

Palabras clave:
Toxoplasmosis
Síndrome de inmunodeficiencia adquirida
Neoplasia testicula
Trasplante renal
Deficiencia inmunológica
Abstract

Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular protozoan infecting birds and mammals. Acute infection is asymptomatic in immune competent people. For immune deficient patients (acquired immune deficiency syndrome, lymphoma patients or those under steroids to prevent organ transplantation rejection) infection may be lethal

We describe an uncommon case of testicular toxoplasmosis in patient under steroids after organ transplantation with no positive serum test for HIV and/or systemic toxoplasmosis

Key words:
Toxoplasmosis
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
Testicular neoplasia
Kidney transplantation
Immune suppression
