Cryoglobulins CGs are classified into three types. Type II CG consisting of monoclonal and or polyclonal immunoglobulins are prevalent in patients with chronic HCV infection while type I CGs consisting exclusively of monoclonal components are mostly found in patients with lymphoproliferative disorders. Type II or type III mixed cryoglobulinaemia MC are found in 19 -50 of patients but This is trial version 80 Hepatitis C Guide leads to clinical manifestations in only 30 of them Lunel 1994 Wong 1996 . Patients with symptomatic mixed cryoglobulinaemia exhibit higher cryoglobulin concentrations Weiner 1998 and lower concentrations of complement factors C3 and C4.
