Although transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection has long been recognised as a potential hazard of gastrointestinal endoscopy, there has been little evidence of direct patient-to-patient cross-infection after such procedures. We wish to report a case of type B viral hepatitis almost certainly acquired at endoscopy from an instrument sterilised in the conventional manner, but which had been used on the previous day on a patient with bleeding oesophageal varices who was incubating type B viral hepatitis.
虽然长期以来人们都认识到乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)感染的传播是胃肠内镜检查的潜在危害,但几乎没有证据表明此类检查后会发生患者之间的直接交叉感染。我们希望报告一例乙型病毒性肝炎病例,几乎可以肯定是在接受内镜检查时通过常规方式消毒的器械感染的,而该器械前一天曾用于一名患有食管静脉曲张出血且正在感染乙型病毒性肝炎的患者。
