Özet
Background/Aims: The mutations in the basal core promoter and precore region of hepatitis B virus genome in hepatitis B e antigen-positive and -negative chronic hepatitis B patients have been described. The reports about their prevalence and clinical significance in the Mediterranean region where D is the predominant genotype, are very limited.
