Abstract
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the most common cause of end-stage liver disease in transplant recipients. Progression of recurrent HCV infection is accelerated. Cyclosporine is not only an immunosuppressive drug, but also an anti-HCV drug. We reported here the beneficial effect of combined interferon and cyclosporine treatment for chronic hepatitis C. We recommend this protocol for established HCV-related graft disease.Entities:
