A member asked:
Will a bone marrow transplantation help a patient with hepatitis c virus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Hepatitis c can be worse after bone marrow transplantation, and complications of bone marrow transplantation are more frequent in patients with hepatitis c. Cirrhosis may develop earlier in transplant recipients compared with non-transplant recipients.
