title: Bleeding disorders: when is normal bleeding not normal?
abstract: Bleeding is a common event in many people, but when is it abnormal and when should further evaluation and diagnostic testing be performed? This review will highlight the three most common bleeding disorders and briefly describe their more common forms of presentation and management options. We will also discuss the role of local hemophilia treatment centers in assisting physicians around the state in managing these complex patients.
