Even though initial imaging studies may be normal, factor replacement is indicated and careful monitoring of the patient is crucial to detect subtle changes in mental status.Patients with hemophilia and inhibitors remain challenging management cases and are best cared for in conjunction with a hematologist.Treatment options for idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) are based on the clinical severity of bleeding.
