Understanding the intimate ethyological mechanisms is important in order to better control the diseases. One of the associations discussed in this paper related to the pathogeny of lymphomas and mielodisplastic syndromes is the C hepatitis viral infection. The relation between the unset of infection an how does this produce the dysimmunoregulation still controversies many researches. In this paper we want to emphasize some observations regarding the association of C hepatitis viral infection with lymphomas and myelodisplastic disorders, the onset of the malignant disease, the history of the disease. Within the lot consisting of 50 patients the patients having the C viral infection will be compared with patients with lymphomas or myelodisplastic disorders that don’t have the viral infection. From the total number of the lymphoma patients, 7.14% presented C hepatitis viral infection. The results show that the presence of chronic hepatitis that evolved into cirrhosis aggravated the patient’s status, and modified the response to antineoplastic treatment and the free event survival (in 4.76% of the patients). |
