Acute hepatitis C infection with evidence of heterosexual transmission.

Journal of clinical virology : the official publication of the Pan American Society for Clinical Virology - 1 Sept 2010

Abstract excerpt

A 62-year-old woman acquired acute hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection after heterosexual contact with a known HCV positive former injecting drug user. There were no known sexual or other risk factors for HCV acquisition. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed the case and index were infected with identical genotype 3a strains, consistent with heterosexual transmission in the absence of specific risk factors.
