Abstract:
In children with bleeding tendency it is a dilemma to go in for sports. The risks and benefits are to be weighed against each other. Mostly there is no need to impede the child's activities. Several sports that safely can be played by children with hemorrhagic diathesis are summed up. Specific aspects of sports by children with thrombocytopenia, Von Willebrand's disease, hemophilia and thrombasthenia are discussed.
