Lingering course of acute viral hepatitis is formed in 9.3% of patients, reliably more often (in 28.2%) in hepatitis B (in hepatitis A - in 5.2%) and is one of the main causes of process chronicity. According to results of follow-up observation, after acute viral hepatitis with cyclic course the majority of recurvalescents recover. Chronic persistent hepatitis was registered only in 44 (2%) out of 2187 patients. Among patients with hepatitis with a prolonged course, complete recovery was noted only in 16.7% of patients.
