 note = {A 64yearold man was admitted for alithiasic cholecystitis. Necrotizing vasculitis was detected in a gallbladder obtained at the cholecystectomy. Slight elevation of transaminases, HBe antigens and hepatitis BDNA (HBVDNA) were detected in the patient. Intrahepatic necrotizing vasculitis was also detected in the liver biopsy specimen, and he also suffered from peripheral neuropathy of suddenly onset. Based on the diagnosis of hepatitis Brelated polyarteritis nodosa, lamivudine was initially administered, followed by plasmapheresis and glucocorticoid steroid therapy. These treatments brought satisfactory improvement of polyarteritis nodosa without exacerbation of liver function., Internal Medicine, vol.45(3), pp.145-149; 2006},
