By means of magnetohydrodynamic approximations, helical equilibrium configurations of current-carrying plasmas housed in a perfectly conducting cylinder were obtained. A particular solution with twisting current channels was obtained at finite amplitude. A small-amplitude equilibrium equation for arbitrary current distributions was also obtained. The presence of magnetic islands in the equilibrium configurations is apparent.
