Abstract

Currently in the world there are more, than 180 mln of persons living with chronic hepatitis C virus infection. Such people are in the great risk of cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma. Additionally 3-4 mln people receive new infection each year. In a big amount of patients with active virus replication cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma develop during two-three decades. We believe appropriate in the process of education in state and English language for students and interns during practical clinical classes in family medicine-general practice to use cases of widely spread and rare diseases with description of the treatment. Article contains the results of own clinical observations of oligosymptomatic clinical course of the hepatitis C virus infection with
manifesting serious complications in intravenous drug abuser.
