Popis: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is associated with the development of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. For aggressive lymphomas, such as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), treatment of HCV infection is typically deferred in treatment-naive patients until after completion of lymphoma therapy [1, 2]. We report a case of HCV-associated stage IV DLBCL successfully treated concurrently using chemoimmunotherapy and a sofosbuvir-based antiviral regimen.
