Registry of inherited coagulopathies in Brazil: first report.
Inherited coagulopathies are bleeding disorders, which require treatment for life. Keeping an updated registry on these diseases is crucial for planning care, documenting prevalence of diseases and evaluating effectiveness of resources. We have analysed data from 26 treatment centres on coagulopathies in Brazil. Information included socio-demographic data, diagnosis of coagulopathies, severity of haemophilias A and B, presence and quantification of inhibitors in haemophilia, type of von Willebrand disease (VWD) and infection status for viral diseases. On 1 July 2007, there were 10 982 patients with inherited coagulopathies in Brazil, of which 6881 (62.7%) corresponded to haemophilia A, 1291 (11.7%) to haemophilia B, 2333 (21.2%) to VWD, 258 (2.4%) to other coagulopathies and 219 (2.0%) to undiagnosed bleeding disorders. Haemophilia A and B inhibitors were present in 9.9% and 1.9% of the patients, respectively. Human immunodeficiency virus infection was present is 6.5%, 4.8% and 1% of patients with haemophilia A, B and VWD, respectively. Hepatitis C virus infection was present in 34.9%, 29.7% and 12% of patients with haemophilia A, B and VWD, respectively. Infection by hepatitis B and human T-cell leukemia-lymphoma virus was also reported. This is the first report on the registry of patients with inherited coagulopathies in Brazil, supposed to be the third largest population of patients with haemophilia.
