HEPATITIS-C VIRUS-INFECTION AMONG GREEK RENAL-TRANSPLANT PATIENTS
Γλώσσες Τεκμηρίου:

Περίληψη:
In this study, the prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection among
renal transplant recipients was high, directly proportional to the
haemodialysis time before transplant and inversely proportional to the
time after this. There was evidence of previous infection with hepatitis
B virus (HBV), and a high prevalence of abnormal liver function tests.
Virus induced chronic hepatitis lesions were rare, probably as a result
of immunosuppression.
