ABSTRACT
Direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) have changed the landscape of hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment, but chronic hepatitis C (CHC) remains a leading indication for liver transplantation (LT). Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation has been reported in HBV-HCV-coinfected patients treated with DAAs. We report on a case of late HBV reactivation after DAA-based treatment of recurrent hepatitis C in an antibody against hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc)-positive LT recipient. (Hepatology 2018;67791-793).
