[A new psychopediatric syndrome of toxoplasmic origin]

A preliminary exposition on the existence of a new syndrome which is of interest to pediatrics and psychiatry and has been called "chronic dystrophying adenic syndrome" or "CDA syndrome" is made. The syndrome is the clinical expression of the lymphochronic variety of the toxoplasmic disease in the child and it is clinically expressed by the triad: dystrophies, psychiatric disorders and adenopathies with a chronic course. In these patients adenopathies have a toxoplasmic origin and they represent the pathogenic factor which determines the syndrome. Atypical forms of the syndrome are pointed out. Most frequent and important atypical forms are correlated.
