Abstract
American trypanosomiasis, or Chagas' disease, is caused by a protozoan, Trypanosoma cruzi. It is endemic in Latin America where it represents a major public health problem. Chagas' disease also occurs in non-endemic areas where it can be acquired by blood transfusion, congenital transmission and organ transplantation. The disease can be fatal in immunosuppressed patients.1 We report a case of reactivation of Chagas' disease (acute form) in a patient who underwent cord blood transplantation in a non-endemic European country.
