Abstract
Circumcision is a ritual in the Jewish and Muslim religions. It is the most common surgical procedure in the world and one of the oldest. Hemophilia A is an inherited, X-linked, recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of functional plasma clotting factor VIII. Circumcision in patients with hemophilia A is a major challenge, and its consequences can be fatal for this particular type of patient. The aim of this study is to evaluate our experience in circumcision of hemophilia patients and assess the safety of our protocol and the complications associated with it.Entities:
