Abstract

An 18-year old male with end-stage renal disease secondary to FSGS initiates chronic maintenance hemodialysis therapy. He receives 40 μg of recombinant hepatitis B vaccine intramuscularly in the deltoid, receiving three separate doses. Six weeks after the primary series is completed, antibody levels against hepatitis B surface antigen are <10 mU/ml.
