Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: Infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1b has been reported to be associated with more severe liver disease and an unfavorable outcome. Liver transplantation allows for a complete examination of the explanted liver for the detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). OBJECTIVE: To study the prevalence of HCC in patients with liver cirrhosis secondary to chronic infection with HCV genotype 1b...
