• W339892018 abstract "Determine the characteristics of pruritus in a selected population of patients with positive hepatitis C virus serology.In a retrospective study, we re-examined outpatient reports for patients who consulted for pruritus from January 1993 to April 1996 and were followed in a hepatology unit for hepatitis C infection. The following data were collected: age, sex, risk factors, HIV and HBV serologies, duration of pruritus and diagnosis, ALAT, gamma GT and total bilirubin, METAVIR score, HCV RNA PCR, search for cryoglobulins, antiviral and dermatology treatments. There were 1,060 patients followed in the hepatology unit during this period, including 327 with cirrhosis.Twenty-seven patients were retained for study, 16 men and 11 women, mean age 53 years. None of the patients had HIV infection, 7 had a past history of hepatitis B infection (positive for anti-Hbc antibodies). Median duration of pruritus prior to consultation was 3 months (95 p. 100 CI: 3 months-2 years). Pruritus was associated with non-specific lesion in 19 cases (70 p. 100: 95 p. 100 CI: 51-85 p. 100). There were excoriated eczema-like lesions in 11 cases (41 p. 100: 95 p. 100 CI: 15-49 p. 100). Other causes were urticaria in 5 cases (18 p. 100: 95 p. 100 CI: 7-36 p. 100), including 1 case of urticarial vasculitis with cryoglobulinemia, 2 cases with atopic dermatitis, and 1 case of primary biliary cirrhosis. In four cases, lichen planus was associated. Skin biopsies were obtained in 10 patients and showed eczema-like alterations in 9 and urticarial vasculitis in 1. Mean ALAT and gamma GT levels were 2.6 N (95 p. 100 CI: 1.9 N-3.3 N) and 2.2 N (95 p. 100 CI: 1.4 N-3 N) respectively, including 11 cases without cholestasis (normal gamma Gt). PCR was positive in 13 cases out of 15. Cryoglobulinemia was found in 10 cases out of 24. At consultation, 3 patients were given ursolvan, 7 interferon, 1 ursolvan with ribavirin, and 3 an interferon-ribavirin combination. Dermatology treatment associated antihistamine agents, emollients, and corticosteroids. This population of hepatology patients referred for pruritus comprised 2.5 p. 100 of all patients (95 p. 100 CI: 1.7-3.6 p. 100). Among them, 1.8 p. 100 (95 p. 100 CI: 1.1-2.7 p. 100) had eczema-like lesions associated with cutaneous xerosis.Pruritus in our patient population was generally associated with non-specific excoriations, prurigo or xerosis in 19 cases (70 p. 100). As only ambulatory patients were retained for analysis, this is not a comprehensive population and the percentage of non-specific pruritus, evaluated at 1.8 p. 100, is probably an underestimation. Cholestasis cannot explain alone these manifestations since 11 patients had normal gamma GT levels. Several etiologies could be involved: a direct effect of HCV, interferon. A prospective study should allow an estimation of frequency, risk factors and possible impact on quality of life." @default.
