Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) shows a significant association with cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is important in the diagnosis of HCC, but elevated AFP levels have also been observed in CHC without HCC. We evaluated the clinical correlation between elevated AFP levels and CHC.
