Figure 1 Risk of recurrent hepatitis B virus infection after liver transplantation in relation to the type of post-transplant hepatitis B virus prophylaxis[34,35]. HBIG: Hepatitis B immunoglobulin; LAM: Lamivudine; ETV: Entecavir; TDF: Tenofovir; ADV: Adefovir.

Figure 2 Proposed algorithm for allocation and management of anti-HBc positive liver grafts. Such grafts should be first offered to HBsAg positive, then to anti-HBc and/or anti-HBs positive, and ultimately to HBV naive (both anti-HBc and anti-HBs negative) recipients[42]. LT: Liver transplantation; HBIG: Hepatitis B immunoglobulin; LAM: Lamivudine.

Figure 3 Proposed algorithm for the management of patients with chronic hepatitis B infection and kidney diseases. 1Low viremia is considered as HBV DNA levels < 108 or < 106 IU/mL for HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative patients, respectively; 2The choice based on similar criteria as before renal transplantation. NA: Nucleos(t)ide analogs; HBV: Hepatitis B virus; HBIG: Hepatitis B immunoglobulin[58].
