RESUMO
The primary purpose of treating chronic hepatitis C (HCV) is to prevent the development of liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and cancer. In the last decade, direct-acting antiviral medicine (DAA) has been approved to treat children with HCV. This treatment has a higher efficacy, shorter duration, and milder side effects than the previously approved treatment. In this review, it is recommended to track down children who might be infected with HCV to enhance early treatment to prevent transmission of the virus and the possible complications.
