Topics include Hemophilia A and B, their genetic causes, and modern treatments; Von Willebrand Disease (vWD), the most common inherited bleeding disorder; and Heparin-Induced Coagulopathy, with its paradoxical effects. We also cover Acquired Factor VIII Inhibitors in autoimmune and malignancy settings, Vitamin K Deficiency as a cause of bleeding, Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC) and its management challenges, and coagulopathy in Cirrhosis, linking liver dysfunction to bleeding and thrombosis.
