## BACKGROUND. Recently, it has been reported that hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA is detected in cancerous liver tissues in some hepatitis B surface antigen negative chronic hepatitis C patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the significance of HBV DNA detected in such cases remains u
We have previously reported an analysis of DNA extracted from 31 primary liver tumors where, in 25 cases, we found chromosomal integration of hepatitis B virus DNA sequences. We describe here an investigation of the extent of the viral genome at each integration site in 15 of the hepatitis B virus D
