The utmost cause of liver transplant among US population with HCC was also considered to HCV. The fibrosis stage plays an important role among chronic HCV patients and associated to HCC risk. Although the annual incidence of HCC is high in cirrhotic cases and lessly developed in less fibrosis livers. Methods: This was an observation cohort study where a total of 100 HCV patents were screened for HCC and risk factors associated. The exclusion criteria include all the patients with Hepatitis B and renal failure, whereas the patients with chronic Hepatitis C (HCV) of both genders were included..

The mean age of the patient was 42+8.9. 62(62%) of the patients were males and 38(38%) were females. Most of the HCC patients were with elevated AFP. AFP has sensitivity, specificity positive predicti...
