Abstract

A patient suffering from viral hepatitis B and secondary membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis was presented. He was treated with recombinant alfa-2 interferon. The therapy led to clinical and biochemical remission of the liver and kidney lesions. The example of our patient justifies the use of recombinant alfa-2 interferon in the patients with chronic viral hepatitis B and secondary glomerulonephritis.
