title: Spontaneous Clearance of Hepatitis C Virus during Pregnancy.
abstract: Spontaneous clearance of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is expected to be unlikely in pregnancy due to the relative immunosuppression and increase in viraemia that occurs. We report the first case of spontaneous clearance of hepatitis C virus (HCV) occurring in pregnancy.
