Overview
On CT, hemophilia is characterized by haemorrhage into joints or soft-tissue.
CT
The hallmark of the disease is haemorrhage, particularly into joints and/or soft-tissue, with three main radiological consequences:
- Hemophilic arthropathy occurring in almost all individuals
- Hemophilic pseudotumor occurring in ~2%
- soft tissue haematoma formation, may lead to contractures 3
- serious life-threatening haemorrhage (intracranial, thoracic, abdominal)[1]
