Abstract

Background: Hemophilia is a hereditary X-linked bleeding disorder characterized by deficiency of coagulation factors VIII or IX, leading to recurrent bleeding episodes, particularly within joints and muscles. In pediatric patients, repeated hemarthroses represent the most significant  clinical manifestation, initiating a cascade of pathological events that culminate in hemophilic arthropathy
