Abstract
HCV has been recognized as the cause of most cases of transtusion-assocrated hepatitis and accOtmt tor almost one third of ali caSes of acute hepatitis, and most of patients progress to chroni<.: hepatitis.
In Egypt, the most predominant type is genotype 4 and its subtypes.
HCV can be transmitted by parenteral and non-parenteral routs and can be diagnosed by:
( 1) Serological assays that detect anti-HCV.
(.2) Pol-vmerase chain reaction (PCR).
A positive PCR test proves infection when serological testing gives ambiguous results.
