Reactivation of precore variant hepatitis B virus in a child with severe aplastic anaemia.

Journal of medical virology - 1 Nov 2001

Smith P R, Zampino R, Gutteridge C, Karayiannis P, Aitken C

Abstract excerpt

Reactivation of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) negative chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection due to selection of precore variant virus is an uncommon complication of previous hepatitis B infection, and virtually unrecognised in children and adolescents. A child who had received treatment with methylprednisolone and antilymphocyte globulin for severe aplastic anaemia developed high levels of detectable HBV DNA...
