[Mid-term natural course in Naples of chronic HBeAg positive infection caused by the HB-virus. Prospective study, preliminary to antiviral treatment].
41 consecutively observed patients with chronic HB virus infection in replication phase (HBeAG positive) were followed up for an average period of 60 months with a view to evaluating the frequency of spontaneous HBeAg/anti-HBe seroconversion and the influence of the event on the clinical course of the liver disease. The 41 patients, of mean age 22 years, suffered from: 26 ECP, 7 ECA, 8 CIRR. 18 patients (41%) presented HBeAg/anti-HBe seroconversion with an annual percentage of 12%, all with stable normalisation of hepatic cytolysis tests. Factors related to HBeAg/anti-HBe seroconversion were: female sex, higher mean starting values of transaminase, positive history for EVA, absence of Virus Delta superinfection. The effectiveness of antiviral treatments will only be demonstrated when seroconversion (inhibition of viral replication) is produced much more frequently than that which occurs spontaneously. Candidates for current antiviral treatment are indicated.
