Hepatitis C virus (HCV)-induced cirrhosis is the commonest indication for orthotopic liver transplantation, but HCV recurrence is nearly universal and may worsen patient / graft outcomes. The frequency and severity of HCV recurrence has apparently increased in recent years, raising concern about a p

Recurrence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) following liver transplantation (LT) is universal. A subset of these patients develop advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis and it is believed that this leads to increased posttransplantation mortality. The specific aims of this study were to determine the incidence o
