  • Due to this, the patient continues bleeding even on a minor injury because of defective blood coagulation. 
  • In this disease, a single protein that is a part of the cascade of proteins involved in the clotting of blood is affected. 
  • Due to this, in an affected individual, a simple cut will result in non-stop bleeding.
