Hepato Cellular Carcinoma

Chronic liver damage by hepetitus leads to increased turnover of hepat cites, which can accumulate mutation overtime and lead to the development of hepato cellular carsonoma. Patients with habititus c serosis then go on to have an annual risk of apato cellular cellsonoma of approximately five % and a 30% risk of n stage liver disease over ten years. Those who clear the virus neither develop long term complications nor need treatment. Between 19 60 and 19 92, it is estimated that 90 thousand hundred 60000 canadians were infected by hepetites sea through blood transfusions alone.
