After hepatitis C virus infection, acute hepatitis C will occur, usually 50% - 85% of the acute patients will turn into chronic hepatitis C. due to blood transfusion, 20% - 30% of the patients infected with hepatitis C will eventually develop into liver cirrhosis. The probability of liver cirrhosis in patients infected with hepatitis C from other reasons is 10% - 15%. About 5% of patients with hepatitis C cirrhosis will lead to liver cancer.
