SummaryHemodialysis was initiated in a mild-moderate hemophiliac at 15 years of age. Hematuria had been a frequent and persisting feature from the age of five years without documented cause. Anemia and proteinuria was first detected at 13 years. A cadaver donor renal transplant was carried out after three months of hemodialysis. Massive intravesical bleeding complicated the immediate post-transplantation period. The allograft rejected after three months and the patient was maintained for eight years on home hemodialysis. A second cadaver donor allograft was carried out at 23 years of age. Again, massive intravesical hemorrhage was a problem post-transplant. The allograft is currently functioning 27 months post-transplant. Factor VIIIc activities have fluctuated between 5% and 40% in the absence of factor infusions.
