To investigate the relationship between hepatocarcinogenesis and integration of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA in the cellular DNA of the liver, we studied the integration of HBV DNA in various noncancerous regions of the liver from 31 patients using Southern blot analysis. Of 13 patients without hepat

## Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) develops several years after the eradication of hepatitis C virus (HCV) by interferon therapy. Risk factors for the development of HCC are only partly understood. To elucidate the role of occult hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in hepatocarcinogenesis in
## Background: The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) and the seroprevalence of hepatitis b virus (hbv) in this disease state are significantly higher in south india than in north india. because data on serologic studies do not project the actual association between the two parameters, thi
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reinfection and recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) are associated with increased graft failure and reduced patient survival. We evaluated the effects of both HCC recurrence and HBV reinfection on the long-term survival of
## Abstract Antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) (antiβHBs) can exist in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. To date, little is known about the association of concurrent HBsAg and antiβHBs (concurrent HBsAg/ antiβHBs) with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of t
