Abstract:	Background Numerous reports have documented reduced graft and patient survival after use of hepatitis C (HCV) seropositive allografts in liver transplantation (OLT). We aimed to examine if the use of a HCV+ liver allograft affects patient and graft survivals compared to HCV− donor allografts in a case-controlled analysis of the united network for organ sharing (UNOS) database.
