Abstract
HCV infection (HCV) results in various clinical manifestations, leading to dermatological and mucocutaneous manifestations. Common among these are dermatological conditions and systemic disorders affecting the skin. HCV is the cause of or is associated with various dermatologic disorders. In patients with such disorders, HCV infection must be sought routinely because antiviral therapy may be beneficial in some of them. Treatment of dermatological manifestations of HCV through eradication of the virus is therefore important in effective patient management, although this alone is not a major justification for HCV treatment.
