A systematic virological follow-up of hemodialysis patients identified 11 cases of de novo hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in the same unit that were not due to blood transfusion. There were three groups of infection, each occurring within a period of 3 months: four infections with genotype 1b, tw

In order to study the incidence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in Tunisian haemodialysis patients and detect its nosocomial transmission, 395 patients were enrolled in a prospective study (November 2001-2003). HCV serological and virological status was determined initially using, respectively
