The studies were carried out in a group of 215 patients with terminal renal failure treated with repetitive haemodialyses in the Nephrology Clinic of the University in Kraków. In 40 patients out of 215, the presence of antibodies against C virus \(anti\-HCV\) was reported. 117 patients \(for economic reasons\) were selected for further detailed analysis. That group included all patients \(40\) in whom the presence of anti\-HCV antibodies was stated and 77 patients free from the HCV infection. In the analysed group of patients the following tests were performed\: \- Serology tests\: aimed at identifying hepatitis C \(anti\-HCV\) and hepatitis G \(anti\-HGV\). \- RT\-PCR tests aimed at identifying in patients’ serum RNA of C virus \(HCV\-RNA\) and G virus \(HGV\-RNA\). \- In addition, bi"]
