Reactivation of hepatitis B.
Reactivation of hepatitis B refers to the abrupt increase in hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication in a patient with inactive or resolved hepatitis B. Reactivation can occur spontaneously, but more typically is triggered by immunosuppressive therapy of cancer, autoimmune disease, or organ transplantation. Reactivation can be transient and clinically silent, but often causes a flare of disease tha...
متن کاملThe Absence of Hepatitis C Virus Infection Among Patients with Hepatitis B virus in Mashhad, Iran
Background and Aims: Many studies have provided evidence for the role of hepatitis B and C viruses in the development of liver cancer. Although the routine treatment is available for both conditions, no definite guideline is available to treat patients dually infected with HBV and HCV. This study was performed to determine the frequency of HBV/HCV-coinfection in Mashhad, North-East of Iran. Mat...
متن کاملReactivation of hepatitis B virus in patients receiving chemotherapy.
In patients undergoing chemotherapy for the treatment of malignant disease, the reactivation of hepatitis B virus in hepatitis B surface antigen-positive patients has been frequently reported. However, activation has also been reported in hepatitis B surface antigen-negative patients who test positive for hepatitis B core antibody and/or hepatitis B surface antibody, who were thought to have ha...
متن کاملReactivation of hepatitis B virus without core antibody.
We present the case of a male patient not vaccinated against hepatitis B virus (HBV) and with reactivity to a surface antibody who, after immunosuppression for a multiple myeloma, had HBV reactivation. Pharmacological HBV suppression was tried, but viremia could not be suppressed. Production-detection core mutations or immunity issues can explain this clinical phenomenon.
متن کاملScreening and Prevention of Hepatitis B Virus Reactivation During Chemotherapy.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is common across the world. Infection can lead to significant morbidity from cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. An estimated 240 million people have chronic (hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg]-positive) HBV infection.[1] As a result of increasing immigration from highly endemic areas (eg, China, Southeast Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe), the prevalence of c...
