Abstract

Due to shared routes of infection (parenteral and sexually transmitted), persons with hepatitis B may be infected with other viruses—specifically human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis D, and hepatitis C. Coinfections lead to an altered natural history of hepatitis B, with higher risk of cirrhosis and liver cancer; thus, screening for coinfections is important in patients with hepatitis B to identify those at heightened risk. Managing patients with coinfections requires longitudinal monitoring of viral co-pathogen activity, awareness of the optimal timing of antiviral therapy for the different coinfections, and attention to the impact of viral interference and viral clearance on clinical outcomes.
