title: Cryoglobulinemia secondary to acute viral hepatitis. Evaluation of a hospital study.
abstract: In the present study the possible relationships between cryoglobulins and acute hepatitis of different viral etiology have been investigated. In most cases, cryoglobulins represent a transient phenomenon limited to the acute phase of the disease. Conversely, in 2 cases the persistence of cryoglobulins was associated with a histological pattern of chronic persistent hepatitis.
