acute HCV infection persists and 4% to 20% of patients with chronic hepatitis C will develop liver cirrhosis within 20 years. In patients with liver cirrhosis, the risk to develop HCC is 1-5% per year. Current standard therapy is the combination of pegylated interferon-α (PEG-IFN-α) and ribavirin. D[r]
