  • Abstract
    Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection seems to be the most important cause of chronic liver disease in renal transplant recipients (RTRs) (1). The reported prevalence of anti-HCV antibodies is wide ranging among RTRs living in different countries and geographic regions from 2.6 to 66% (1-3). HCV infection is a common cause of chronic hepatitis in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) (4).
