%X the case of a 32-year-old male patient with past health until he was 29 years old, when he began to present an end-stage chronic renal failure, was reported. dialytic treatment was immediately applied and 5 months later hepatitis c was diagnosed. it was decided to perform a kidney transplant from a living donor, but it was not possible due to the existence of a marked histolysis. he was initially treated with interferon 2b for a year without making the pcr negative. therefore, he received combined treatment of interferon 2b and ribavirine (first case reported in our country of a patient undergoing hemodialysis). the pcr yielded negative, the cytolysis disappeared and the kidney transplant was successfully performed (from a living donor that was his relative) 2 months after concluding the treatment. the biochemical, hematological and virological evolution with both therapeutics was presented
