Abstract

human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis B and C viruses (HBV and HCV) are three most common chronic viral infections documented worldwide [1]. These viruses have similar routes of transmission, namely through blood and blood products, sharing of needles to inject drugs and sexual activity, enabling co-infection with these viruses a common event [2]. In addition, the prevalence rate of coinfection with HIV in HBV and HCV patients have been variable worldwide depending on geographic regions, risk groups, and type of exposure involved, which may be different not only from country to country, but also in different regions of same country [3]. In spite of widespread evidence of HBV/HIV and HCV co-infections and the increasing prevalence of HIV there are few reports about frequency of infection by HIV viruses in HBV and HCV positive patients in Iran. We assess 749 patients who had positive HBs Ag or HCV antibodies attending to gastrointestinal and hepatology research center of Mashhad Imam Reza hospital in northeast Iran, after performing pre-test counseling and informed consent. 643 (85.8%) patients were HBV positive, 99 (13.2%) were HCV positive and 7 (0.9%) patients has coinfection HBV and HCV hepatitis.
