The chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis are predisposed to Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and serve as reservoir of infection to the hospital staff. The data on prevalence of HCV infection in patients receiving hemodialysis as renal replacement therapy is scarce and this highlights the significance of this study. 3 (7.1%) patients were anti-HCV ELISA positive whereas 39(92.9%) were anti-HCV negative.
