Patients at risk for hepatitis C (HCV) are those exposed to a major risk factor (i. e. blood transfusion prior 1990, and intra- venous drug abuse), and those exposed to a minor risk factor (sex- ual, mother-to-infant transmission, household contact, nosocomial contamination). The present paper aims to review the current and past modes of transmission of the virus C. (Acta gastroenterol. belg., 2002, 65, 87-89). |
