Abstract
The natural history of HCV chronic infection has drastically changed after direct‐acting antiviral treatment. Due to the high‐sustained virological response (SVR) achieved, non‐invasive estimation of liver fibrosis regression has become a major key point. The present study tries to evaluate the relation between liver histology and liver stiffness measurement (LSM) by transient elastography (TE) after SVR.Keywords
