Overview

Hemophilia must be differentiated from other diseases leading to spontaneous bleeding and bleeding following injuries or surgery such as von Willebrand disease, hepatic failure, thrombocytopenia, vitamin K deficiency, disseminated intravascular coagulation, uremia, congenital afibrinogenemia, factor V deficiency, factor X deficiency as seen in amyloid purpura, glanzmann's thrombasthenia, Bernard-Soulier syndrome, factor XII deficiency and C1-inhibitor (C1INH) deficiency.

Differentiating Hemophilia from other Diseases

Hemophilia must be differentiated from other diseases leading to spontaneous bleeding and bleeding following injuries or surgery such as:
