similar rigidity but a different biology (chronic pancreati-tis vs pancreatic cancer). 4,7 At present it can be useful in cases with negative FNAB or as a guide for directing FNAB into zones that have a greater probability of malignancy (hard) and avoid necrotic tissue (soft). It cannot yet replace EUS-guided FNAB. Further studies are required that evaluate and determine the specific role of EUS elastography in the evaluation of solid pancreatic lesions. No financial support was received in relation to this article. However, Medical Scope SA de CV and CT Scanner Lomas Altas temporarily loaned the Pentax EG-3870UTK echoendoscope and the Hitachi Preirus ultrasound console, respectively.

Telaprevir in a patient with chronic hepatitis C and cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis.

Mixed cryoglobulinemia (MC), the most common extrahepatic manifestation of HCV, may lead to renal involvement ranging from mild urinary abnormalities to nephritic syndrome, eventually evolving to renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy. HCV eradication with pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN) and ribavirin (RBV) is the only curative treatment for MC-related membranoproliferative glomerulon...

Two-Year Follow-Up Analysis of Telaprevir-Based Antiviral Triple Therapy for HCV Recurrence in Genotype 1 Infected Liver Graft Recipients as a First Step towards Modern HCV Therapy

Objective. The introduction of protease inhibitors telaprevir and boceprevir in 2011 had extended the antiviral treatment options especially in genotype 1 infected hepatitis C relapsers and nonresponders to interferon/ribavirin therapy. The aim of this study was to analyze the long-term treatment efficiency of telaprevir-based triple therapy for patients with hepatitis C reinfection after ortho...

Telaprevir or boceprevir based therapy for chronic hepatitis C infection: development of resistance-associated variants in treatment failure.

The use of triple-therapy, pegylated-interferon, ribavirin and either of the first generation hepatitis C virus (HCV) protease inhibitors telaprevir or boceprevir, is the new standard of care for treating genotype 1 chronic HCV. Clinical trials have shown response rates of around 70-80%, but there is limited data from the use of this combination outside this setting. Through an expanded access ...
