Direct-acting antiviral drugs to cure infections with Hepatitis C virus (HCV) achieve a sustained virological response (SVR) in more than 90% of adult patients. At present, clinical trials are ongoing and real-life data are still limited in children. Herein, we report two cases of pediatric patients treated with fixed-dose combination of sofosbuvir/ledipasvir, already approved to treat HCV4 genotype. Both young girls achieved SVR even though HCV4 isolates carried L28M and M31L NS5A resistance-associated substitutions (RASs). Therefore, possible effects of these RASs merit further study, especially in children.
