ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the efficacy and safety of adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) in treating hepatic cirrhosis complicated with hepatitis B virus associated glomerulonephritis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Six hepatic cirrhosis (Child-Pugh A grade, liver function compensated) patients complicated with hepatitis B virus associated glomerulonephritis diagnosed by renal biopsy, real time PCR and urinary protein tests were treated with ADV for one year in addition to a routine treatment. The dosage of ADV was 100mg daily.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After 3 and 6 months treatment the negative conversion rates of HBV-DNA were 33.3% and 83.3%; the negative conversion rates of HBeAg were 16.7% and 66.7%; the positive conversion rates of HBeAb were both 16.7%; the recovery rates of ALT were 83.3% and 100.0%; and the recovery rates of TBil were 66.7% and 83.3% respectively. Protein in the urine of two patients was decreased to 0.3 g/d and in three patients it was 50% of the original values. After 1 year treatment the disease subsided fully in 3 and partially in 2 patients.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Treating hepatic cirrhosis complicated with hepatitis B virus associated glomerulonephritis using adefovir dipivoxil is effective and safe.</p>
