Abstract
Hepatitis C is associated with most of symptomatic mixed cryoglobuline mia (MC). MC contain rheumatoid factors (RF) so we have looked for RF in 111 patients with chronic hepatitis C. Most of them had FR in corre lation with age, the lenght of infection and the presence of pseudo fo llicular lymphoid aggregates in the liver.
