Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hereditary hemochromatosis is a genetic disease defined by enhanced overloading of iron and associated with Chronic Hepatitis C (CHC). This study aims to evaluate the correlation of the HFE gene mutations on Egyptian CHC with liver disease progression and the risk of HCC development. METHODS: The HFE mutations (C282Y and H63D) were genotyped on 100 CHC patients and 50 healthy individuals by a...
