| Core Tip |
Hepatitis B is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Vertical transmission is the main transmission route, especially in areas with high prevalence of the infection. Maternal viraemia is a preeminent risk factor for vertical transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV). Breastfeeding is recommended, although all the conditions leading to maternal-foetal microtransfusions with HBV-infected maternal blood increase the risk of vertical transmission. Neonatal immunoprophylaxis at birth rappresent the most important approach to prevent HBV infection. The aim of the present narrative review is to summarize the knowledge on prevention of vertical transmission of HBV infection. |
