  • Descrição: The goal of the study was the assessment of the effectiveness of the hepatitis B vaccine among patients with liver diseases. Only those patients without serological markers for HBV infection (HBsAg-, anti-HBcT-, anti-HBs-) were selected. Twenty nine patients were vaccinated. The recombinant vaccine (Engerix-B SKB 20 microg) was used according to a 0, 1, 2 month regime. Serum samples for seroconversion rates and concentration of antiHBs were taken at month 1,2 and 3 after the first injection. The vaccines were divided into two groups. Group 1-16 patients with liver steatosis. Group 2-13 patients suffering from liver cirrhosis. The seroconversion rates and the concentrations of anti-HBs were taken at month 1,2 and 3 after the first injection. Good response to the HBV vaccine was observed in the patients with liver steatosis. 93, 7% of serocoversion to anty HB-s was observed after vaccination. The GMT of anti- HBs was 97,37 IU/l. Patients suffering from liver cirrhosis responded much less favorably to the hepatitis B vaccine than patients with liver steatosis. Seroconversion rate after third dose was 38,5%only, and GMT of anti-HBs was 18,48 IU/l. Patients suffering from the liver cirrhosis react much less favorably to the hepatitis B vaccine than patients with the liver steatosis.
