Association of sustained virologic response with reduced progression to liver cirrhosis in elderly patients with chronic hepatitis C
OBJECTIVE: We studied the effect of sustained virologic response (SVR) after treatment with pegylated-interferon (PEG-IFN) plus ribavirin on the development of liver cirrhosis in elderly patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: This retrospective study enrolled 145 elderly CHC...
