Abstract

The significance of anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) core immunoglobulin M (IgM) and its relationship with genotypes, alanine aminotransferase abnormality, and histological data were studied for 18 patients who had undergone orthotopic liver transplantation due to HCV-related end-stage disease. During follow-up, IgM response seemed to be associated with the recurrence of HCV infection but did not correlate with abnormal alanine aminotransferase levels and histological data. In addition, the results of this study indicated that the detection of HCV RNA is critical for diagnosis of reinfection in liver transplantation.
