[Chronic viral infection in patients with alcoholic liver involvement].
OBJECTIVE
Detection of viral hepatitides markers in patients with alcoholic damage to the liver.


METHODS
Virological, immunological and histochemical tests were performed in 36 chronic alcoholics who had enlarged liver and/or abnormal hepatic characteristics.


RESULTS
60% of the examinees carried chronic HBV, HCV, HDV infection. The activity of chronic inflammation of hepatic parenchyma was associated with biological phase of the viral infection development. The degree of hepatic parenchyma morphological changes was unrelated to the virus type. (HBV, HCV, HDV).


CONCLUSIONS
Alcoholic hepatic damages often combine with viral hepatitis.
