Prenatally Diagnosed Hemophilia in a Newborn: a Case Report.

Hemophilia is the most common inherited coagulation disorder, and approximately one-half of patients are diagnosed as newborns. For prenatal diagnosis of hemophilia A, genetic tests are performed using chorionic villi (biopsy PCR chorionic villi sampling [CVS]) at 10 weeks' of gestation. The result in this fetus demonstrated an inversion within intron 1 in part for hemophilia A.
