title: [Chronic non-A non-B hepatitis treated with interferon].
abstract: Non-A non-B hepatitis remains a diagnostic and therapeutic problem. Recently published data indicate that interferon may represent a considerable step forward in the therapy of this disease. We have treated a patient with non-A non-B hepatitis with recombinant interferon alpha 2-B. Both biochemical and morphological liver parameters were normalized after nine months of treatment. Further studies are being performed to establish the efficacy and effective doses of interferon in the treatment of non-A non-B hepatitis.
