The influence of severity of hemophilia on bone mineral density and fracture risk
The present study shows that BMD is decreased in 63.1% of persons with hemophilia also depending on the severity of hemophilia. However, the largely normal TBS implies that the microarchitecture of the bone does not seem to be affected. It is recommended to include osteoporosis screening, including TBS analysis, in the comprehensive diagnostic work-up of persons with hemophilia, especially as they age.
