[A case of pseudotumor in a patient with hemophilia A]

A case of a patient with proved hemophilia A and a pseudotumor of the iliac bone is presented. The diagnostic importance of sonography and computed tomography is pointed out. Obligatory control and follow-up by physical, ultrasound and computed tomographic examinations of hemophilic patients with muscular hematomas and subperiosteal hemorrhages are recommended for the prophylaxis of pseudotumors. Their persistence in spite of proper treatment with coagulative bioproducts should be considered as an indication for surgical treatment in order to prevent the development of hemophilic pseudotumors.
