Hemophilia is a disorder of blood clotting. It is a genetic disease, that is, it is transmitted from parents to children at the time the child is generated.
There are two types of hemophilia:
• Hemophilia A, which represents about 80% of all cases, is a deficiency of coagulation factor VIII.
• Hemophilia B is a deficiency of clotting factor IX.
The bleeding patterns and consequences of these two types of hemophilia are similar. The main symptom of hemophiliacs is excessive bleeding.
