Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Patients with end-stage liver disease due to chronic hepatitis B infection in whom a YMDD escape hepatitis B virus (HBV) mutant has emerged under lamivudine treatment are generally denied liver transplantation (OLT). METHODS: We report the case of a male patient who was started on prophylactic treatment with lamivudine in the context of recurrent episodes of HBV reactivation during high dose...
