Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between serum HBV.M.alanine transaminase(ALT) and hepatic tissue pathology in patients with chronic hepatitis B.Methods The serum HBV.M.liver function in 133 patients with chronic hepatitis B were measured,and these patients underwent percutaneous liver biopsy by colour Echo.All these patients were divided into eight groups according to HBeAg and HBV DNA positive or negative,ALT normal or not.Hepatic necrosis inflammation grade and hepatic fibrosis stage in the groups were compared.Results Hepatic histology of all these patients showed inflammation and necrosis and different degree fibrosis.In serum ALT normal patients,liver biopsy still showed different degrees inflammation and hepatic fibrosis degrees partly,even showed hepatocirrhosis.In serum ALT abnormal and HBeAg negative patients with chronic hepatitis B patients,hepatic tissue inflammation and fibrosis degrees were more serious,hepatic tissue pathology was out of proportion to the degree of serum HBV reproduction.Conclusion Judgment of disease activity doesn't only depend on the serum transaminases and the degree of serum HBV DNA replication.When clinical choosing indication of antiviral therapy,value of liver biopsy should not be substituted.Liver biopsy in chronic hepatitis B should be regarded as main basis of judgment the hepatitis activity.It also should be regarded as main basis if antiviral therapy is conducted.
