Chronic infection with the hepatitis B virus has been linked epidemiologically to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma for more than 30 years. Although the mechanisms by which chronic hepatitis B viral infection results in hepatocellular carcinoma are unclear, there is good evidence that the virus itself exerts a direct hepatocarcinogenic effect, and this has implications for prevention....
متن کاملEffects of hepatitis B e-antigen on recurrence of hepatitis B-related hepatocellular carcinoma after curative resection: A meta-analysis.
AIM The impact of hepatitis B e-antigen (HBeAg) on recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after curative resection remains controversial. This meta-analysis aimed to determine whether the presence of HBeAg influenced the recurrence of HCC after curative resection.

متن کاملRecurrent hepatitis B following recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after living donor liver transplantation.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) recurrence after liver transplantation for HBV-associated liver diseases results in decreased patient and graft survival. Herein we have reported two cases of HBV recurrence following relapse of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Both cases had LDLT for end-stage liver disease secondary to HBV infection with nodules of HCC exc...
متن کاملPre-S deletions of hepatitis B virus predict recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after curative resection
The relationship between hepatitis B virus (HBV) and the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after surgery remains uncertain. A retrospective cohort study was performed to evaluate the impact of pre-S deletions, T1762/A1764, and A1896 mutations on prognosis of HCC after curative resection. A total of 113 patients with positive serum HBV DNA (>200 IU/mL) who had underwent curative resect...
