Resumo

Samples of Trypanosoma cruzi isolated from five pregnant women living in the same endemic área were studied. The behaviour in the experimental animal, morphological aspects of the blood — forms and histopathological lesions in mice were considered. Although in two of the women, congenital transmission of the infection to the foetus hás been observed, we could not observe differences between the strains of T. cruzi isolated from those cases and the strains isolated from the cases in which no congenital transmission ocurred. The five samples of T, bruzi seem to belong to the same strain pattern. The number of cases here studied was not suffícient for any conclusions about the ínfluence of different strains of T. cruzi on congenital transmission of the infection. However we think that the present itudy could be uaeful as « comparatlvê basls for the research on the strains of T. cnizi isolated ífrcuv different áreas where congenital tranuntiilon of Chagas discase is Va^ pf even absent.
