abstract = {Loss of follow-up or reinfections hinder the expectations of hepatitis C eradication
despite the existence of highly effective treatments. Moreover, the elimination of
the infection does not imply the reversion of those chronic alterations derived
from the previous infection by hepatitis C virus (HCV). This review analyzes the
risk factors associated with loss to follow-up in diagnosis or treatment, and the
possibility of reinfection. Likewise, it assesses the residual alterations induced by
chronic HCV infection considering the liver alterations (inflammation, fibrosis,
risk of decompensation, hepatocellular carcinoma, liver transplantation) and, on
the other hand, the comorbidities and extrahepatic manifestations (cryoglobulinemia,
non-Hodgkin lymphoma, peripheral insulin resistance, and lipid, bone
and cognitive alterations). Peculiarities present in subjects coinfected with human
immunodeficiency virus are analyzed in each section.},
