Popis: | Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes hepatocellular carcinoma but its association with other cancers is not well established. We compared age-adjusted incidence of primary cancers among 5773 HBV-infected persons with US cancer registries during 2006–2018. Compared with the US population, substantially higher incidence among HBV-infected persons was observed for hepatocellular carcinoma (standardized rate ratio [SRR], 30.79), gastric (SRR, 7.95), neuroendocrine (SRR, 5.88), cholangiocarcinoma (SRR, 4.62), and ovarian (SRR, 3.72) cancers, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (SRR, 2.52). Clinicians should be aware of a heightened potential for certain nonhepatic malignancies among hepatitis B patients, as earlier diagnosis favors improved survival. |
