Homozygous expression of haemophilia B in a heterozygote.
A case of clinically severe haemophilia B in a woman is described. In 1977 she was delivered of a healthy male child, showing that she is heterozygous for the haemophilia gene. This seems to be the first report of a proven heterozygote with the homozygous expression of severe haemophilia.
