What happens during the disease - chronic viral hepatitis b with delta-agent
Chronic viral hepatitis b with delta-agent is a chronic, progressive liver disease caused by a combination of the hepatitis b virus (hbv) and the hepatitis d virus (hdv). the infection is typically spread through contact with infected body fluids, such as blood, saliva, or semen. both hbv and hdv replicate in the liver, causing inflammation and damage to the liver cells, leading to scarring and cirrhosis over time. hdv is a defective virus that requires the presence of hbv to replicate, so the combination of both viruses leads to a more severe form of the disease.
