description Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a rare necrotizing vasculitis that affects medium-sized arteries. The association of hepatitis B virus (HBV)and HIV with PAN is well documented. Although there are documented cases of PAN in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, the connection between PAN and HCV is not well established. We report a case of PAN in a patient with HCV infection who failed treatment with interferon.
