Abstract
Since a case report of HB antigenemia associated nephropathy (abbr.:HB NP) in an adult,occuring after a blood transfusion(Combes,B.et al.,1971)(1),information on this nephropathy has been increa sing. The first pediatric patients were reported by Brozosko,W.J. et al.(19.74) in 18 children(2). Although the high incidence of renal diseases in HB positive Japanese children was emphasized by Shingo,S.(1973)(3),the first description of HB NP in Japanese children was reported by Uraoka,Y. et al.(1977)(4). Since then the number of reports of HB NP in pediatric patients is increasing.
