Hemophilia A and B are the most common of the severe bleeding disorders. The present article focuses on the practical aspects of the management of neonates and children diagnosed with hemophilia, and is based on questions frequently posed to paediatric hematologists. It highlights the importance of early diagnosis, the principle of early intervention and the role of comprehensive care hemophilia treatment centres.
