Since the introduction of techniques to reliably identify antibody to the hepatitis C virus and quantitation of hepatitis C virus, there has been an increasing interest in the behavior of chronic hepatitis C infection with liver transplantation. Ninety-seven patients with chronic active hepatitis C

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is associated with mixed cryoglobulinemia and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis. After orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), isolated cases of HCV-associated mixed cryoglobulinemia have been reported. We determined the prevalence and clinical characteristic
Progression of fibrosis following recurrent hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is frequent after liver transplantation (LT). Histology remains the gold standard to assess fibrosis, but the value of hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is being explored. We evaluated patients with recurrent HCV inf
## Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA persistence in the liver has been described even after apparent resolution of HCV infection. Because T‐cell reactivity plays a role in recovery from HCV infection, virus‐specific T‐cell responses were investigated in apparently recovered individuals in whom h
