Abstract:
In patients transplanted for HCV cirrhosis, reinfection by the virus is constant. Medium-term survival is good but long-term occurrence of cirrhosis is likely to impair the long-term prognosis of these patients. Patients should be informed before transplantation of the spontaneous risk of HCV recurrence and of its consequences. As for hepatitis B in the last decade, new antiviral therapies and immunosuppressive approaches will certainly change the course of HCV after transplantation.
