“…In our study, however, the histologic HCV recurrence-free survival was significantly higher in the CsA group than in the TAC group. Some have observed that HCV recurrence may have increased between 1991 and 2000 [6,10,11]. Although, the cause of this observation is uncertain, Berenguer suggests that increasing donor age and the increasing use of TAC may be reasons for increased HCV recurrence.…”

“…Se han descrito factores que pueden influir en la gravedad de la recidiva y condicionar un mayor grado de fibrosis (Tabla 3); sin embargo, algunos estudios han sido contradictorios y no existe evidencia rotunda sobre la importancia de cada uno de ellos 19 . A continuación mencionaremos los más importantes: a) Factores relacionados con el virus: algunos estudios han sugerido que el genotipo 1b y las cargas virales elevadas (pretrasplante y postrasplante precoz), se asocian a una mayor severidad en la recidiva, con mayor fibrosis del injerto y una disminución de la supervivencia a 5 años 20,21 ; sin embargo, estos resultados no se han confirmado en otros estudios.…”

“…1 In the majority of patients, recurrent HCV infection is a mild liver disease, progressing to fi brosis at a slow rate; 2 however, in up to 30% of patients with recurrent hepatitis C, fi brosis progresses at a fast rate, leading to allograft cirrhosis within 5 years after OLT. 3 Donor age has emerged as the major risk factor of severe fi brosis progression after OLT; 4,5 however, the exact mechanisms responsible for this association remain unclear, and additional factors are likely to play a role.…”
