Roughly 40% of observed mutations responsible for hemophilia A (HA) are novel and present in either a single family or a limited number of unrelated families. During routine diagnostic analysis of 73 unrelated Belgian patients with mild HA, 4 out of 43 different mutations (p.Ser2030Asn, p.Arg2178Cys, p.Arg2178His, and p.Pro2311His) were detected in more than one family, representing 35% of total identified...
