Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Eradicating chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection improves liver fibrosis and reduces hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) incidence in chronic HCV patients. We evaluated the relationship between fibrosis regression, as assessed by sequential biopsies, and clinical factors of patients with sustained virological response (SVR). METHODS: We retrospectively enrolled 130 patients (74 men;...
