Hepatitis C y Linfoma No Hodgkin
Un estudio de investigadores de la Universidad de British Columbia (Canadá), presentado en la III Reunión Anual sobre Fronteras en la Investigación para la Prevención del Cáncer, que se desarrolla en Seattle, muestra que los pacientes infectados por el virus de la hepatitis C tienen 6 veces más probabilidades de desarrollar linfoma no hodgkiniano que las personas no infectadas por dicho virus.
En concreto, se refieren al linfoma de células B, la forma más frecuente de linfoma no hodgkiniano. Para el estudio se examinó la tasa de infección por el virus de la hepatitis C en 550 pacientes con linfoma no hodgkiniano y en 205 controles.
