Chronic infection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the most common reason for liver transplantation. We examined the results of laboratory tests for HCV on a cohort of patients who received a liver transplant between 1990 and 1994 at three large centers. Seven hundred twenty-two recipients and 60

Immunoprophylaxis using intravenous (IV) hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG) decreases the recurrence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). However, IV HBIG is expensive, has significant side effects, and is inconvenient to administer. An alternative appro

Reinfection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) after liver transplantation is nearly universal in patients not receiving immunoprophylaxis. Because reinfection reduces graft and patient survival, treatment of recurrent infection is important. Interferon alfa (IFN-alpha) is an effective therapy for chronic

1. Early recurrence of hepatitis C is universal. 2. Typical histopathologic features of hepatitis C virus (HCV) and acute allograft rejection (AAR) exist. 3. Early recurrent HCV may be differentiated from AAR. 4. Liver biopsy plays a role in diagnosing HCV and AAR. 5. Risk factors for recurrent HCV
