title: Defect of bone marrow granulocyte reserve in viral hepatitis.
abstract: In patients with HBAg-positive and HBAg-negative viral hepatitis the etiocholanolone test showed a decrease of the bone marrow granulocyte reserve at the height and, though at a lower degree, at the end of the disease. These results are discussed in relation with the incidence of aplastic anemia following viral hepatitis.
