Hepatitis C must be differentiated from other diseases that cause hepatic injury and abnormal liver function tests such as other viral hepatitides (Hepatitis A, Hepatitic B, and Hepatitis E), and non viral etiologies namely alcoholic liver disease, non alcoholic steatohepatitis, drug-induced liver injury, autoimmune hepatitis, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Overview

Hepatitis C must be differentiated from other diseases that cause hepatic injury and abnormal liver function tests such as other viral hepatitides (Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis E) and non viral etiologies such as alcoholic liver disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, drug-induced liver injury, autoimmune hepatitis, hepatocellular carcinoma, liver abscess, pancreatitis, and bowel obstruction.

The differential diagnosis of hepatitis C includes other etiologies of viral hepatitis and non-viral etiologies:[1]
