Abstract

Amaç: Kronik hepatit B tanılı hastaların klinik özellikleri ve genotipik dağılımlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.


Gereç ve Yöntem: Kronik hepatit B tanısı ile Ocak 2011 ve Ocak 2012 tarihleri arasında Enfeksiyon Hastalıkları polikliniğine başvuran hastalar retrospektif olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Hastaların serum örneklerinde bakılan biyokimyasal testler, HBV DNA ve viral genotipleme testleri ve ayrıca karaciğer biyopsisi ile histopatolojik evreleme sonuçları gözden geçirildi. Hbe ag pozitif ve negatif olmak üzere iki gruba ayrılan hastaların özellikleri karşılaştırıldı.


Bulgular: Çalışmaya dahil edilen 58 hastanın hepsinde (100%) HBV genotip D tespit edildi. Hastaların yaş ortalaması 40 (18-71) idi. Hastaların 34' ü (58.6%) erkek, 24'ü (41.4%) ise kadındı. Hbe ag pozitif hasta sayısı 13 (22%), Hbe ag negatif hasta sayısı ise 45 (78%) idi.


Sonuç: HBV genotipleri, hastalığın bulaş yolunu, seyrini ve verilen tedaviye yanıt oranlarını etkileyebilecek bir parametredir. Dolayısıyla bir bölgedeki veya ülkedeki HBV genotiplerinin bilinmesi, virusun yayılım dinamiği ve uygulanacak tedavilere yanıt oranlarının nasıl olacağı hakkında önemli öngörüler sağlayacağı için önemli bir epidemiyolojik bulgudur.

Abstract

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the clinical features and genotypic distribution of chronic HBV patients.


Materials and Methods: The patients with chronic HBV infection were evaluated retrospectively. Biochemical tests, HBV DNA, viral genotyping in the serum samples and liver biopsy results of the patients were evaluated. The properties of the patients who were divided into two groups as Hbe ag positive and Hbe ag negative were compared.


Results: HBV genotype D was found in all of the 58 patients (100%) included in the study. The mean age of the patients was found to be 40 (18-71) years. 34 (58.6%) of the patients were male and 24 (41.4%) were female. The number of Hbe ag positive patients was found to be 13 (22%) and the number of Hbe ag negative patients was found to be 45 (78%).


Conclusion: HBV genotype is a parameter that may affect the mode of transmission and prognosis of the disease and the rates of treatment response. Thus, information related with the HBV genotypes in a region or country is a significant epidemiological finding because it will provide significant predictions related with the dynamics of dissemination of the virus and the rates of treatment response.
