Nikenza Viceconte: Hemophilia A and B Beyond Simple Bruising
Nikenza Viceconte, Director Strategic Offerings at CENTOGENE, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Unexplained bruising, prolonged bleeding after minor injuries, or joint pain caused by internal bleeding may be more than signs of a simple injury, they can point to an underlying bleeding disorder.
Hemophilia A and B are caused by reduced or missing clotting factors, most commonly affecting males, and can range from mild to severe.
Identifying the specific factor deficiency is essential for understanding the condition and supporting appropriate day-to-day management.
With diagnostic testing, CENTOGENE can help identify the specific clotting factor deficiency, providing physicians with valuable insights to guide treatment and helping families better understand what their child is experiencing.
Genetic cause: F8 gene (type A) or F9 gene (type B), affecting clotting factor production.
Symptoms: Prolonged bleeding after injury, easy bruising, joint pain from internal bleeding.”
