Hemophilia is an X-linked recessive congenital bleeding disorder characterized by a functional or quantitative deficiency of Factor VIII (Hemophilia A) or Factor IX (Hemophilia B). This impairment disrupts the intrinsic pathway of the coagulation cascade, critically compromising the amplification phase and the subsequent massive generation of thrombin.

Oncology is the branch of medicine dedicated to the study and treatment of neoplasms, with a primary focus on malignant tumors or cancer. As a medical specialty derived from internal medicine, it encompasses cancer diagnosis and management, centering on comprehensive patient care through chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and targeted systemic treatments. In contrast, surgical oncology focuses on the excision of tumors and surrounding tissues, while radiation oncology utilizes radiotherapy to treat the disease.

Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine dedicated to the study of ocular diseases, enabling the diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, AMD (age-related macular degeneration), retinopathies, and other disorders that impact vision and overall eye health.
