Abstract
The prevalence of serum antibodies to hepatitis C Virus (Anti-HCV) was assessed by an enzyme im- munoassay (Abbott HCV EIA) in 78 patients with long- term Hemodialysis in Cheong Ju. Two patients (2,56%) were anti-HCV positive. All anti-HCV positive patients had not recevied mutiple transfusions with mean of 8.2 +/ 6 pints. Anti-HCV positive patients were no significant differ- ence compared to anti-HCV negative patients in age, duration of hemodialysis, total amount of transfusion. All patients had no clinical evidence non-A non-B hepatitis but they were usually poor general codition. And then Liver biopsy was not done. The result of this serologic survey suggests that anti-HCV positive among dialysis patients in Cheong Ju area was not high compared with other area in korea, although much less than hepatitis B infection.
