Abstract

Conclusion: HBsAg reversion occurs after renal transplantation with an incidence of 0.7 per 100 patient-year and is followed by reactivation. This intervenes mainly in the first post transplantation year. Ethnic background, acute rejection episodes, and absence of anti-HBs Ab before transplantation appear as risk factors for reactivation. Patients with resolved hepatitis B but without protective anti-HBs Ab should receive vaccination.
