This observation reports that a hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation, as the result of hepatitis C virus (HCV) eradication on a dominant HCV coinfected HBV/HCV patient, was subsequently prevented by treating both viral infections together. This finding raises the question as to whether preemptive HBV treatment should be prescribed along with HCV treatment to prevent HBV from being reactive after HCV eradication in coinfected HBV/HCV patients.
本观察报告称,在一名以丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)为主的HBV/HCV合并感染患者中,丙型肝炎病毒清除导致了乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)再激活,随后通过同时治疗两种病毒感染预防了这种情况。这一发现提出了一个问题,即在合并感染HBV/HCV的患者中,在进行丙型肝炎病毒治疗时是否应同时进行预防性HBV治疗,以防止丙型肝炎病毒清除后HBV再激活。
