Non-hodgkin Lymphoma Developing After Discontinuation of Direct-acting Antiviral Treatment for Hepatitis C: A Case Report

Abstract

Today, direct-acting antivirals (DAA) are the main treatment options for hepatitis C infection. However, whether malignancy risk is increased after DAA treatment is a matter of debate. Conflicting results have been reported in the relevant studies. In this paper, we present the case of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma developing after DAA treatment in a patient with complete response to hepatitis C treatment.
