MATERIALS AND METHODS: Virological, immunological and histochemical tests were performed in 36 chronic alcoholics who had enlarged liver and/or abnormal hepatic characteristics. RESULTS: 60% of the examinees carried chronic HBV, HCV, HDV infection. The activity of chronic inflammation of hepatic parenchyma was associated with biological phase of the viral infection development. The degree of hepatic parenchyma morphological changes was unrelated to the virus type. (HBV, HCV, HDV). CONCLUSION: Alcoholic hepatic damages often combine with viral hepatitis.
