Hepatitis crónica por virus de la hepatitis C genotipo 4

Abstract

Resumen El virus de la hepatitis C (VHC) es uno de los agentes causales mas importantes de enfermedad hepatica. El genotipo 4 es responsable del 20% de las hepatitis cronica y en varios paises de la cuenca mediterranea se ha comunicado que la prevalencia esta aumentando. La infeccion por el VHC evoluciona a la cronicidad en mas del 90%, un 20% puede presentar cirrosis y entre un 5–10% desarrollar un hepatocarcinoma. Se ha especulado sobre una posible asociacion del genotipo 4 con el desarrollo de hepatocarcinoma, pero parece relacionado con otras causas concomitantes de hepatopatia. El tratamiento se basa en el uso de interferon pegilado α-2a (a dosis de 180 μg/sem) o interferon pegilado α-2b (1,5 μg/kg/sem) mas ribavirina (1.000–1.200 mg/dia) durante un ano. Con este regimen terapeutico se han observado tasas de respuesta virologica sostenida (RVS) en torno al 65%. Se han apreciado diferencias en las tasas de RVS segun el grado de fibrosis, las infecciones concomitantes asociadas y la presencia de determinados marcadores serologicos. Se ha utilizado la nitazoxanida en combinacion con el tratamiento combinado clasico, alcanzandose una mejoria en los resultados.
