[Prevalence and clinical profile of hemophilia of black Africans in urban areas of the Ivory Coast]. / Prévalence et profil clinique de l'hémophilie du Noir africain en zone urbaine en Côte d'Ivoire.

The authors report 20 haemophilic cases during a screening performed in urban area (Abidjan) in a population of 2.500 male subjects. They estimate the disease prevalence at 0.8%. The only haemophilia form identified is the A form, which does not seem to prevail in a particular ethnic group. No clinical significant particularity has been observed, otherwise.
