Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Conventional genetic investigation fails to identify the F8 causal variant in 2.5%-10% of haemophilia A (HA) patients with non-severe phenotypes. In these cases, F8 deep intronic variants could be causal. AIM: To identify pathogenic F8 deep intronic variants in genetically unresolved families with non-severe HA analysed in the haematology laboratory of the Hospices Civils de Lyon. METHODS: The whole...
