title: [The epidemiology of non-A, non-B hepatitis (NANB). A review of the literature].
abstract: Non-A, non-B hepatitis (NANB) is, after type B hepatitis, the most frequently encountered form of hepatitis. Parenteral transmission and apparently nonparenteral or "sporadic" forms are described. The epidemiology of this new form of hepatitis is examined in the light of personal experience and of reported data.
