The meeting of 20 paediatric haemophilia treaters from 16 European countries, initiated in autumn 1997 by Dr R. Ljung, Malmo, Sweden, has become an annual meeting. The third Workshop was held in Fuschl, Austria (16–18 September 1999) and the fourth Workshop in Stresa, Italy (5–7 October 2000). The aim of each meeting is to promote informal discussion between experienced paediatric treaters on clinical practice and research to improve quality of care. The programme each year includes reviews and presentations by members of the network, in addition to invited speakers including an annual lecture on gene therapy. Reviews may be initiated in 1 year and concluded at a subsequent annual meeting. It is for this reason that we are producing a biennial meeting report and have select topics reflecting European experience.
