Resumo: Aims: To evaluate the prevalence of antibodies against hepatitis C virus in patients undergoing hemodialysis and to investigate the present condition of 71 patients who participated in a study conducted at the same hemodialysis unit from 2000 to 2002. Methods: Patients seropositive for hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV reactive) were identified among those undergoing hemodialysis at Hospital São Lucas da PUCRS in May 2006. Seventy-one patients who underwent hemodialysis from a previous study (2000-2002) of prevalence of HCV were also studied. These subjects were followed through medical records. The results were described and compared with the literature. Results: I May 2006, among the 70 patients undergoing hemodialysis at DU-SLH, 7 (10%) were anti-HCV reactive. Regarding the 71 patients from the 2000-2002 study, 24 (33.8%) still attend São Lucas Hospital, 12 (16.9%) undergoing hemodialysis and 12 (16.9%) after renal transplantation. Twenty two patients (31%) have dyed, the majority of them due to cardiovascular causes. Twenty five (35.2%) patients are no more in contact with the Institution. Conclusions: Anti-HCV prevalence detected among patients undergoing hemodialysis in May 2006 was significantly different from that observed in the 2000-2002 study. Apparently, hepatitis C infection had no influence on the mortality or prognosis of anti-HCV positive patients from the 2000-2002 study, once the major registered cause of death was cardiovascular problems.

Métodos: Foram identificados os pacientes em programa de hemodiálise no Hospital São Lucas da PUCRS em maio de 2006, analisando a sorologia positiva para hepatite C, através de anti-HCV reagente. Também foram estudados, retrospectivamente, 71 pacientes que estavam em hemodiálise no período de 2000 a 2002 e que participaram de estudo prévio a respeito de prevalência de anti-HCV positivo e/ou HCV-RNA positivo. Foi realizado o seguimento destes pacientes através de revisão de prontuário médico. Os resultados foram apresentados de forma descritiva e comparados com a literatura. Resultados: Setenta pacientes estavam em programa de hemodiálise no mês de maio de 2006, entre os quais 7 (10%) tinham anticorpos positivos para hepatite C. Dos 71 pacientes que participaram do estudo entre 2000 e 2002, 24 (33,8%) permaneciam em acompanhamento no HSL-PUCRS, sendo que 12 (16,9%) em programa de hemodiálise e 12 (16,9%) realizaram transplante renal. Vinte e dois pacientes (31%) foram a óbito, sendo que as causas mais freqüentes foram as cardiovasculares (36,3%). Vinte e cinco pacientes (35,2%) perderam o vínculo com a instituição. Entre os 71 pacientes, 15 apresentavam anticorpos para o vírus C e 7 tinham a sorologia (anti-HCV) negativa. Entretanto, a detecção do HCV–RNA era positiva. Os restantes tinham tanto anti-HCV quanto HCV-RNA negativos. Conclusões: A prevalência atual de anticorpos positivos para hepatite C nos pacientes em hemodiálise não se alterou significativamente em relação ao período de 2002. Não foi possível identificar influência da infecção pelo vírus da hepatite C na mortalidade e no prognóstico dos pacientes em programa de hemodiálise. A causa de óbito mais freqüentemente encontrada foi a cardiovascular.
