dc.description.abstractIn recent decades and because of migration, Chagas disease has become a global public health problem. A significant focus has been placedon pregnant women who can transmit the disease to their offspring. Here,were portfour cases of women who did not know that they were pregnant while they were being treated with benznidazole. A diagnosis was established according to serology and Trypanosoma cruzi polymerase chain reaction (PCR)–standardized tests. Treatment was discontinued when pregnancy was confirmed, and a thorough follow-up was carried out. Although each case was different, none of the mothers developed health problems during pregnancy, and their newborns were delivered without any teratogenic effects.es
