Core Tip |
Antiviral therapy of chronic hepatitis C, especially the achievement of a sustained virologic response, has several beneficial effects on liver-related parameters in chronic hepatitis C patients. There seems to be a time-dependent effect of therapy. Initially, liver inflammation ameliorates, followed by more discrete changes in structural liver lesions. These improvements are followed by beneficial effects on liver function, cognitive disturbances, and portal hypertension. Together, this suggests short- and long-term improvements in the underlying liver disease with the promise of an improved prognosis. |
