Hemorrhaging in hemophilia

Hemorrhaging in hemophilia refers to acute, pathological bleeding episodes occurring in individuals with congenital or acquired deficiencies in essential blood-clotting proteins, most commonly factor VIII (hemophilia A) or factor IX (hemophilia B)

This hematologic coagulopathy primarily affects males due to X-linked inheritance, although acquired forms can arise in either sex Clinically, these hemorrhages manifest predominantly as painful deep musculoskeletal bleeds, including hemarthroses in large joints and intramuscular hematomas, as well as potentially life-threatening intracranial, mucosal, or post-traumatic bleeds

Pathophysiologically, impaired secondary hemostasis disrupts intrinsic pathway thrombin generation and fibrin clot stabilization, resulting in delayed, prolonged, or spontaneous extravasation of blood
