Hepatitis C in pregnancy.

Grace L Su1.   

Abstract

Hepatitis C is a worldwide health problem affecting men and women of all ages. In young pregnant women, however, the existence of hepatitis C presents a set of unique issues for the mother and the child. For the mother, therapeutic and medical decisions for hepatitis C are affected by pregnancy. For the child, transmission of hepatitis C from the mother can occur. Identification of risk factors for mother-to-child transmission and prevention of this transmission are the foremost concerns.
