Hydranencephaly is an uncommon finding in congenital toxoplasmosis. The authors report a new case and emphasize the toxoplasmic etiology of this malformation, the possibility of normal neurologic examination at birth, and the usefulness of cranial transillumination whenever congenital toxoplasmosis is suspected in a neonate.
