Development of a hepatitis delta virus antibody assay for study of the prevalence of HDV among individuals infected with hepatitis B virus in China.

abstract：:A 31-year-old woman contracted acute varicella at 13 weeks of gestation. Severe hydrops fetalis, hepatomegaly, and intrauterine fetal death were detected at 16 weeks of gestation by ultrasound examinations. An examination at autopsy, histopathology, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) provided evidence of varicella-zo...
