Which type of liver neoplasm is common with hepatitis B virus infection?

Hepatitis B virus is a DNA virus that incorporates its nucleic acid within the host hepatocye nucleus, thus disrupting or promoting the expression of cellular genes. Expression of HBV proteins may have a direct effect on cellular function, and some of these products may favor malignant transformation. Chronic inflammation and cytokine production have a major role in liver fibrosis and liver cell proliferation.
