A 56-year-old man on hemodialysis for 3 years because of chronic renal failure underwent living related donor liver transplantation (LRDLT) and splenectomy using the right hepatic lobe for liver cirrhosis type C (genotype 1b) with hepatocellular carcinoma. At 69 postoperative days (POD), he displayed a high fever and his blood transaminase and total bilirubin were increased. Based on finding in his liver biopsy, we diagnosed rapid recurrence of progressive hepatitis C after LRDLT, so we administered IFNbeta. Thereafter his liver function returned to normal and his HCV-mRNA decreased to 1200 kcopy/mL. We inferred that hemodialysis and splenectomy decreased his immunity, allowing rapidly progressive hepatitis C recurrence after LRDLT.
