Is there a True Link between HCV and Pathogenesis of RCC?

It is estimated that approximately 3% (130-200 million) of the world population are infected with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV). 130–200 million people, or ~3% of the world’s population, are living with chronic hepatitis C. Approximately, 350,000 deaths and 4 million new cases are confirmed annually from HCV-related diseases. In the United States, 35,000-185,000 new cases are reported with an estimated death 8,000-10,000 annually.
