Arteriosclerosis in severe hemophilia. A postmortem study.

: The clinical histories, risk factors, and autopsy findings were reviewed for five deceased hemophiliacs over the age of 40 years to determine the prevalence and severity of arteriosclerosis. The presence of a severe, congenital, hypocoagulative state did not prevent these five men from displaying typical arteriosclerotic vascular disease. One patient actually died of severe, multivessel, coronary artery disease.
