Abstract
Preexistence and appearance of resistance-associated substitutions limit the efficacy of direct-acting antivirals in treatment of hepatitis C. This is the first case report of an adolescent with chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 4 infection and cirrhosis who failed treatment with ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir and ribavirin. Resistance analysis showed baseline resistance-associated substitutions M28V and Y93C and emergent D168H.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
