Hepatitis C and fibrosis [PDF]

Revista Española de Enfermedades Digestivas, 2004
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a health problem involving more than 100 million people worldwide. However, despite these high numbers, only a group of infected people will develop serious difficulties from viral persistence. Liver fibrosis is the main complication of chronic HCV infection, and its eventual outcome –liver cirrhosis– is responsible
