Of the serological tests employed, the CFT presented, in only one case, conflicting results, particulary in one laboratory and among different laboratories. However negative results were greater than all doubtful and positive one combined. The IFT icere negative in both patients. Some comments are made about the sensibility and specificity of these tests.
