The authors studied 23 chronic carriers of HBsAg, to classify them in terms of serology, histopathologic findings and behaviour of markers HBsAg and HBcAg in hepatic tissue. Immunohistochemical techniques were used to establish possible relations between these parameters. Among patients with positive HBeAg found all exhibited HBcAg in hepatic tissue, but in 16 patients in which HBeAg was negative, liver HBcAg was positive in 3 cases (18.7%). No correlation was found between the HBeAg system/anti-HBe and histopathologic findings because chronic active hepatitis was observed in 6/8 anti-HBe positive patients (75%). These findings suggest that, the evaluation of chronic carriers of HBsAg, requires a histologic analysis of the liver, including a tissue research for the virus in addition to a complete serologic study of HBV.
