The perinatal transmission of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the major route of infection in infants. The understanding of the risk factors of perinatal infection and the continuation of studies in this area allow one to propose immunological algorithms of prediction and to work outa follow-up strategy of infected children. The authors have made virological and Immunological studies of infants born to mothers with HCV infection.
