For over 20 years, has carried out a program of primary prevention through universal vaccination against hepatitis B including it in the childhood vaccination schedule and has already been observed that in some estudi3 the prevalence has declined . For this reason , we want to evaluate what is the currently prevalence in our area of influence. There aren't recent studies to assess what is the current status of these patients ( how many , what risk factors which needs of treatment and with answer ...)
