Summary

Clinical and diagnostic laboratory findings are described in all cases of haemophilia A and 2 cases of haemophilia B. Bleeding from the umbilical stump, an unusual feature, was noted in 2 cases of haemophilia A and one case of haemophilia B. In all the patients with haemophilia A, haemostasis was achieved by the transfusion of a single unit of fresh blood or plasma. The control of bleeding in haemophilia B was difficult and required many transfusions.
