Abstract

Aim of the work
Our aim in this study is to determine prevalence of hepatitis C virus infection in diabetic patients in a trial to interfere or even prevent occurrence of this catastrophic disease among this group of patients.
Conclusion
• There is a positive relationship between HCV infection and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
• The facts that most of the seropositive subjects had diabetes for 5 years or of lesser duration yet had peripheral stigmata of chronic liver disease is a probably an indication that diabetes might be one of the many extra hepatic manifestations of HCV infection rather than vice versa.
• The presence of raised ALT level in diabetic subjects should be considered an indication for further investigations for chronic liver disease and especially HCV infection.
