## Abstract A high prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in patients with B‐cell non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma (B‐NHL) has been reported in some, but not all, studies, and the association showed a strong regional variation. We conducted a systematic review of the prevalence of HCV infection in c
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is both hepatotropic and lymphotropic and has been shown to be associated with the benign lymphoproliferative disorder, mixed cryoglobulinemia (MC). Preliminary studies suggest that there may be an association between chronic hepatitis C, MC, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).
## Abstract This study assessed the association of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection with non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma in a highly HBV‐endemic area. The prevalence of either HBV or HCV infection in 235 patients with non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma was compared with that of an age‐ and
