[Pseudo-tumoral haematoma of the iliac fossa in haemophiliacs (author's transl)].
Pseudo-tumoral blood collections in haemophiliacs are uncommon but must be borne in mind because of their severity and of the need for timely and appropriate treatment. Surgical excision appears to be required as soon as the tendency towards enlargement is recognized and before the volume and complications of the tumour increase the difficulties, particularly in the iliac fossa. Other treatments, especially puncture-aspiration, seem to be ineffective and/or dangerous. A better knowledge of the pathogenic processes involved might lead to new therapeutic approaches.
