[Successful treatment with alpha-interferon of HBV and HDV coinfection. Case report of a 4-year-old boy].
The authors present a case of chronic active hepatitis due to HBV and HDV coinfection. Because of high biochemical and histopathological activity with coexisting hepato- and splenomegaly, treatment with alpha interferon was initiated. HBe/anti-HBe seroconversion and normalisation of biochemical and patomorphological paramethers were achieved.
