Current Opinion in Organ Transplantation, 05/20/09
McCashland TM - Differentiation of acute rejection from recurrent hepatitis C is difficult; however, the use of hepatitis C virus RNA tissue levels, immunohistochemistry and Councilman body/portal tract ratio may help with this diagnostic dilemma. The use of a specific calcineurin inhibitor appears not to influence recurrent hepatitis C, but rapid steroid taper is detrimental and, if steroids are used, long slow taper should be used. Use of rapid and early virological responses is very helpful in the management of hepatitis C after transplantation. In the patients with sustained virological response, histological and survival benefits are noted.
