Abstract

Many unique challenges are associated with hepatitis C infection in mothers and children. The preconception, antenatal, and postnatal phases each offer opportunities to reduce transmission of the virus from mother to infant or to identify the need for treatment. Management of children and youth with hepatitis C is now entering the era of direct-acting antivirals. Improvements are needed in the identification of infected mothers and children and their linkage to appropriate expert care.
