    Author: Castro F, Santaella M, Torres EA, Rodriguez-Medina JR, González-Keelan C.
    Journal: Am J Gastroenterol; 1997 Sep; 92(9):1557-8. PubMed ID: 9317087.
    Abstract:
    Hepatitis C infection progresses faster in patients with hypogammaglobulinemia, often leading to death from liver failure within 10 yr of exposure. Response to interferon treatment has been poor in these patients. We report the case of a patient with common variable immunodeficiency and hepatitis C in whom a sustained biochemical and viral remission was obtained after treatment with interferon.
