title: [Hepatitis C virus antibodies in hemodialyzed patients].
abstract: Assessment of antibodies against the hepatitis C virus (HCV) in 629 patients treated by haemodialysis in 47 dialyzation centres revealed the probability of HCV infection in 196 of them, i.e. in 31%. In a group of 91 patients newly admitted for dialysis, antibodies against HCV were found in 24, i.e. in 26%. The percentage of anti-HCV antibody carriers in different dialyzation units varied between 6 nad 60.
