Abstract

Hemophilia A (HA) and B (HB) are X-linked genetic disorders resulting in deficiencies of blood coagulation factors VIII and IX. In order to prevent joint bleedings and hemophilic arthropathy in hemophilia patients, a long-term prophylactic therapy with factor VIII or IX concentrates has been suggested. This coagulation factor substitution can be complicated by the development of antibodies against factor VIII or IX (sc. inhibitors).
