Core Tip	Human tissue transplantation is a current practice that still represents a risk for hepatitis B virus transmission (HBV). HBV detection is included in the routine screening tests for cell and tissue donors. The implementation of methods involving nucleic acid amplification has increased the sensitivity and specificity of the screening tests. The aim of this review is to update the knowledge of the risk of hepatitis transmission through tissue transplantation and critically analyze current screening tests.
