Abstract

Infections with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) occur primarily through percutaneous transmission, while sexual transmission seems to be rare. Recently, in some European cities, an increasing incidence of sexually transmitted HCV infection among HIV-infected homosexual males has been reported. We describe four cases of acute HCV infection among HIV-infected homosexual males, where sexual transmission was likely.
