    Abstract:
    Hepatitis virus infection is a special problem in China and the role of Hepatitis virus infection in allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is not well-defined. In this study, 106 BMT patients were included for analysis of the role of virus infection in allo-BMT. Seven and 65 of 106 patients were found to have HBV infection and HCV infection, respectively. Neither HBV infection and HCV infection interfered with the engraftment of bone marrow cells nor increased the rate of AGVHD, CGVHD, VOID. Neither HBV infection nor HCV infection prohibited allo-BMT. But Hepatitis virus infection can cause mild to moderate liver dysfunction, even death because of acute liver function failure, active prevention and treatment of hepatitis virus infection remains necessary. In this respect, rh-interferon is useful.
