[Prognosis in acute viral hepatitis B in children].
Epidemiological evaluations indicate an increase of acute viral hepatitis B in children. In this study authors performed an analysis of disease prognosis in retrospective trial in children hospitalized in the Pediatric Department of Infectious Diseases from 1983 to 1993 because of acute viral hepatitis B. It was documented that a risk of persistent hepatitis B may be related to the age of patients with acute viral hepatitis B in the past. In 64% of analyzed patients below 1 year old and in 20% over 6 years-persistent hepatitis was diagnosed, especially in male subjects.
