Prevalence of Hepatitis B Virus Mutations Associated with Hepatocellular Carcinoma in HBV and HIV Co-infected Adults in Botswana

2022-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Mutations within the hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome have been associated with rapid progres-sion to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); however, there is limited information regarding the prevalence and impact of these mutations in most of sub-Saharan Africa, including Botswana. We aimed to determine the prevalence of HBV mutations known to be associated with progression to HCC using a retrospective, cross-sectional a...
