Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes can be established by methods based on PCR typing and serological typing. The accuracy of these methods depends on their sensitivity and specificity. These should be compared with the reference method, direct sequencing, and analysis of viral genomes. Among the sero

## Abstract Occult hepatitis B virus (HBV) and occult hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection are two recently described different forms of HBV and HCV infections. This work compares the clinical, virologic, and histologic characteristics of patients with occult dual infection to those of patients with s
## Abstract Coโinfection with HBV and HCV seems to be associated with more severe liver disease in retrospective and crossโsectional studies in adults, but no data are available when coโinfection is acquired in youth. The longโterm outcome of infection acquired in youth was assessed in patients coโ
Hepatitis C virus shows substantial nucleotide sequence diversity distributed throughout the viral genome. In the present study genotyping for Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infected patients was based on RFLP analysis of 5 0 UTR and using type specific primers of NS5B regions. It was observed that 60% of
