A phylogenetic analysis elucidating a case of patient-to-patient transmission of hepatitis C virus during surgery.

The Journal of hospital infection - 1 Dec 2000

Heinsen A, Bendtsen F, Fomsgaard A

Abstract excerpt

A phylogenetic hepatitis C virus (HCV) assay based on the core-Envelope 1 (C-E1) region was developed and used to elucidate a case of a patient-to-patient transmission. The index patient showed clinical symptoms of hepatitis seven weeks after surgery for hallux valgus under general anaesthesia. She progressed to a chronic persistent infection as indicated by positive HCV PCR results two years after surgery....
