| Abstract: | Haemophilia must be one of the most important diseases that have affected the Royal families of Europe and the well documented pedigree for haemophilia of the family line of Queen Victoria, shown in Fig. 1, is certainly one of the most interesting for students of history and medicine. Queen Victoria had one haemophiliac son, Leopold, Duke of Albany No. 8, II Generation, and two daughters, Alice and Beatrice who were carriers of the sex linked gene for haemophilia. These two daughters transmitted the disease to the Royal families of Russia. Spain and Prussia. |
