ABSTRACT
Spontaneous intra-abdominal hemorrhages are uncommon in hemophilic patients. They can cause complications in patients with severe hemophilia, and are associated with a high mortality rate. To date, there is no guideline for the management of intra-abdominal hemorrhage in patients with hemophilia. Management of intra-abdominal hemorrhage ranges from conservative treatment to emergent embolization or surgery. We describe two children with hemophilia A, who were successfully treated non-operatively by administering coagulation factor concentrates and embolization, and were later discharged from the hospital. We emphasize the role of an active approach in the evaluation and management of intra-abdominal hemorrhage without any surgical intervention.
