This case report highlights a rare combination of ulcerative colitis (UC) and hemophilia A. Early UC diagnosis and management are crucial to prevent potentially fatal rectal bleeding in hemophilia A patients.
Area of Science:
- Gastroenterology
- Hematology
Background:
- Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease with increasing global incidence.
- Its complex pathogenesis involves genetic, immune, and environmental factors.
- The co-occurrence of UC and hemophilia A is rare but poses a significant risk of life-threatening rectal bleeding.
