Abstract

Manifest or occult (latent) hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a serious problem for patients with blood cancers during chemotherapy. All clinicians involved in the treatment of malignant tumors must carry out HBV infection screening in a group of patients with malignant blood diseases and a risk for reactivation of virus infection. The paper describes a clinical case of the reactivation of HBV infection in a female patient with B-cell lymphoma and evolving liver cell failure, which could be eliminated with nucleoside analogues. It also discusses procedures to prevent and treat reactivation of HBV infection in B-cell lymphoma patients receiving chemotherapy.
