https://doi.org/10.22627/2072-8107-2021-20-1-65-68

Abstract

Routine vaccination against viral hepatitis B (HBV) has significantly reduced morbidity and mortality from this infection. The development of acute HBV in children is currently a rarity, but there is still the possibility of developing a similar scenario in children from family foci of HBV, aswell as in children with no specific prophylaxis. A clinical observation of the development of acute HBV in aninfant is presented, and the difficulties of managing such patients are demonstrated.
