[Vertical transmission of hepatitis B (new personal case in a newborn infant)]
Bollettino Dell'Istituto Sieroterapico Milanese
|July 31, 1979
A case of acute B hepatitis in a male 3 month-old baby born to an asymptomatic-HBsAg-carrier mother is reported. There is a good evidence to support the hypothesis of a vertical transmission at delivery. In fact the mother failed to exhibit any reactivity for e/anti-e system and resulted DNA-polymerase negative.
