title: [Current problems of viral and alcohol diseases of the liver].
abstract: 517 cases of acute viral hepatitis (AVH) and 1203 cases of hepatic cirrhosis (HC) have been analysed. In recent 20-28 year the trend to a decline in the role of HBV infection in the origin of both AVH and HC. The least lethality was reported for viral C-cirrhoses. When the sale of heavy drinks was limited by the law, lethality of alcoholic hepatic cirrhosis came down 2.5-fold. Among hepatic cirrhoses, the percentage of alcoholic forms has increased from 35.6% in 1972-1984 to 41.5% in 1996-2000. The worst prognosis is now stated for alcoholic-viral and polyviral hepatic cirrhoses. The data for 4.5 years evidence for at least 50% lethality in this group.
