ABSTRACT:
The recurrence of hepatitis C after a liver
transplant remains an important cause of graft loss and retransplant. Antiviral
therapy with peginterferon plus ribavirin (PEG-INF/RBV) can achieve a sustained
viral response and histological improvement in a high percentage of cases.
However, this treatment is not exempt from important side effects or from the
possibility of precipitating rejection, with the resulting graft loss. We
report the case of a liver transplant patient who received treatment with
PEG-INF/RBV and developed plasma cell hepatitis as the presenting form of
rejection.
