Sexually-transmitted seronegative HCV infection in an HIV-positive post-liver transplant recipient. Case report and review of the literature.

We report an HIV-positive patient post liver transplant for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. Posttransplant liver enzymes became persistently elevated, however HCV antibody was repeatedly negative. Nucleic acid testing subsequently revealed ongoing HCV viremia. Exposure to HCV was on the basis of sexual transmission. The patient was subsequently successfully treated with sofosbuvir/ledipasvir.
