Risk of pancreatic cancer in chronic hepatitis B virus infection: data from the REVEAL‐HBV cohort study

Background and aims: The relationship between the hepatitis B virus (HBV) and pancreatic cancer remains unclear. Because HBV has been isolated from pancreatic tissue, we hypothesized that HBV may play a role in the development of pancreatic carcinoma.
