Abstract:
BACKGROUND/AIMS:Hepatitis B virus can cause serious problems in individuals undergoing organ transplantation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the hepatic events among HBs-Ag positive recipients and HBs-Ag negative recipients who received products from hepatitis B virus carriers. METHODS:A total of 151 patients received an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at the Department of Hematology-Oncology, University of Ankara, between June 1989 and June 1998. Among these, eight HBs-Ag positive and four HBs-Ag negative recipients received a product from a hepatitis B virus positive donor. The median follow-up period for these 12 patients was 13.2 months. RESULTS:Three of the eight HBs-Ag positive recipients died (one from hepatic failure); of the remainder, two are HBs-Ag negative, two HBs-Ag positive with normal liver injury tests and one HBs-Ag positive with elevated ALT levels. Of the four HBs-Ag negative recipients who received stem cells from a hepatitis B positive donor, two died; none of the patients in this group became HBs-Ag positive after transplantation. CONCLUSION:Hepatitis B virus infection is a common problem in patients being considered for allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplantation, especially in areas where hepatitis B virus infection is endemic. We believe that the presence of HBs-Ag positivity is not an absolute contraindication for allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplantation unless the hepatitis B virus is in a replication phase.
