  • Title: [Hepatitis G virus exists--but does hepatitis G?].
    Author: Wejstål R, Lindberg J.
    Journal: Lakartidningen; 1999 Jan 27; 96(4):323-6. PubMed ID: 10024820.
    Abstract:
    Hepatitis G virus, or GB virus type C, is a recently discovered RNA virus, remotely related to hepatitis C virus. The infection is frequently found, and seems to be blood-borne, occurring among intravenous drug abusers and transmitted from mother to child. Although long-term viraemia is common, in most cases the infection resolves spontaneously. Whether the viral infection causes liver disease or has other manifestations remains unknown.
