Abstract
Hemophilia A is a recessive congenital deficiency of factor VIII that is characterized by normal bleeding time, normal prothrombin time, and prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time. In moderate and severe cases, abnormal bleeding is observed even after minor trauma, and the diagnosis is usually made by the age of 5-6 years, whereas in mild cases, abnormal bleeding is detected after major trauma or surgery. Herein, we present a case of hemophilia A that was discovered due to difficulties with hemostasis after tooth extraction.
