Iron deposits in the liver and abnormalities in serum iron biochemistry are frequently observed in patients with chronic liver diseases, but data for patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection are scarce. Moreover, the role of HFE mutations in iron deposits in this condition remains unknown. The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of serum iron biochemical abnormalities and iron deposits in the liver of chronic HBV patients, and to evaluate the consequences for the activity and severity of liver disease. Additionally, we studied the role of HFE gene mutations in iron deposits.
