Özet:

An acute hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is an uncommonly encountered illness. Patients infected with the HCV commonly tend to be asymptomatic because of spontaneous viral clearance or chronic infection. Early antiviral treatment may be beneficial especially in symptomatic cases. Antiviral therapy with an (IFN)-based regimen is standard except in the instance of a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) coinfection. The efficacy of HCV therapy has been restricted by the side effects of treatment. Advances in the treatment options of chronic HCV infection have resulted in the development of many new antiviral drugs that may allow for simplified and shortened treatments with increased tolerability and efficacy in patients with acute HCV infection.
