- Abstract
Microcirculation was studied over time in 51 patients with acute viral hepatitides types A and B using bulbar microphotographic vasography. The results were compared with some immunological indices (the blood level of circulating immune complexes, the platelet aggregation test). The expression of microcirculatory changes correlated both with a type of virus hepatitis and the severity of disease. The relationship of disorders in the system of microcirculation with immune factors, in particular with immunopathological reactions developing during HBV infections, was discussed.
