Abstract
Three patients with hemophilia presented with hemothoraces which resolved within 1–3 weeks following treatment with factor concentrates. Drainage of blood was not necessary. Eight previously reported cases are reviewed, and therapy and complications are summarized. We suggest that treatment of this rare complication of hemophilia with factor concentrates and avoidance of surgical intervention is indicated.Keywords
