Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the main etiology of advanced liver fibrosis and cirrhosis with significant risk to progression to HCC .In most cases, HCC occurs in individuals with chronic liver diseases, such as cirrhosis caused by hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection. Several parameters, genetic, viral and environmental play important role in the regulation of the host immune response to viral infection and its progression. Factors that increase the risk to HCC development include obesity, diabetes mellitus, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, aflatoxin exposure, alcohol consumption and occult hepatitis c infection and genetic variations such as single nucleotide polymorphisms. Using the newly discovered direct acting antivirals (DAAs), great improvement in sustained virological immune response (SVR) has occurred >90% in treated patients irrespective to their fibrosis level. Nevertheless the progression to HCC in HCV patients who achieve (SVR) stay vulnerable for HCC development, especially patients with advanced fibrosis and/or cirrhosis
