+ filei^n to love.] (Med.)
A condition characterized by a tendency to profuse and
uncontrollable hemorrhage from the slightest wounds; it is
caused by an absence or abnormality of a clotting factor in
the blood, and is a recessive genetic disease linked to the
X-chromosome, and therefore usually occurs only in males;
there are several specific forms. It may be treated by
administering purified clotting factor. It was formerly
termed Hematophilia.
