Abstract
As of today, there is yet no succesful treatment of chronic hepatitis B. Failure of interferon a-2a treatment for chronic viral hepatitis has prompted combination therapy. We present a 4 year old male infected with chronic hepatitis B in the replication phase who was treated with a combination of interferon a-2a and lamivudine therapy. Full remission was reached at the end of one year and this affect was still observed after one months of follow-up. So we believe that efficiency of this combination must be researched with controlled and extensive studies.
