Disseminated toxoplasmosis presenting as a prolonged febrile illness is rare in immunocompetent individuals. We report a probable case of acquired toxoplasmosis in an immunocompetent woman who presented with fever of 6 months duration with lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly. The diagnosis was confirmed by serology and the presence of Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites on bone marrow aspirate. The patient was successfully treated with pyrimethamine plus clindamycin.
