dc.description.abstractThe aim of the study was to estimate about seroprevalance rates of hepatitis A and B infections in Antakya region. The preoperative laboratory records of patients who were schedulled for various types of operations between May 2004 and May 2005 in Antakya State Hospital were used in this retrospective study. ELISA method was used to determine the antibodies for anti-HAV IgG, HBsAg, anti-HBs and anti-HBc IgG. The percentages of the seropositivity for anti-HAV IgG, HBsAg, anti-HBs and anti-HBc IgG were found to be 85.4% (737/862), 3.2% (79/2439), 33.4% (734/2194), 31.6% (585/1848), respectively. Seropositivity of HBsAg and anti-HBs was higher in males than in females. (p< 0.05). This study showed that there is a increased seropositivity of anti-HAV IgG, anti-HBs and anti-HBc IgG positivities with age (p<0.05). This study also showed that seroprevalances of hepatitis A and hepatitis B may be high in Antakya region.en_US
