Popis: |
Spontaneous clearance of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an uncommon occurrence in the course of chronic infection. We reported a rare case of a 41-year-old male patient infected with HCV genotype 3a who presented spontaneous viral elimination after increasing his daily consumption of alcoholic beverage. In this short review, we overview how modulation of the hepatic inflammatory response could have a role in the viral elimination process. Keywords: Hepatitis C, Alcohol, Inflammation, Interleukin-10 |
