[The accidental detection of anti-HCV positivity and monoclonal gammapathy]

The study presents four cases of monoclonal gammopathy accidentally detected in anti-HCV-positive blood donors without previously known hepatopathy. A hematological and hepatic studies were performed, including liver biopsy in all the cases, discussing the implications of the association between the two phenomena and the possible false positives of anti-HCV in hypergammaglobulinemias.
