Abstract
A 60-year-old female with squamous cell carcinoma in the right maxillary sinus. Chemotherapy-induced hepatitis B (HBV) reactivation sometimes causes severe hepatitis. HBV reactivation also occurs in patients with negative serum markers for hepatitis B surface antigen. The physician should consult with a liver disease specialist and consider alternative treatment with nucleoside analogues.
