Introduction: , all of which can contribute to the progression of liver disease. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of co-parasitic infections with HCV-positive individuals within Egyptian populations and the resulting biochemical changes in liver and kidney biomarkers. Materials and Methods: . Results: mono-infection was most prevalent (42.1%) among males aged 21-50 years. Conclusion: Liver enzyme levels (GPT, GOT, Alk, and GGT) and kidney parameters (creatinine and urea) were significantly affected by the type (mono or mixed) and species of parasitic infections in HCV patients. Additionally, most serological parameters were significantly in cases of viral/parasitic co-infections, especially, among patients with high viral loads.
