Abstract: Back ground Hemophilia is a group of inherited coagulation disordered that considered as a serious congenital coagulation factor deficiency include hemophilia A, B, C, the former one called the, classic one that result from factor VIII deficiency, second type result from factor IX deficiency called Christmas disease, the last one due to factor XI deficiency, the study establish relation between hemophilic patients and their immunological status through measurement of salivary IgA level while under treatment ObjectiveThe present study will be designated to determine the level of salivary IgA in hemophilia patients, make comparison with healthy control. ResultsLevel of salivary IgA was significantly decreased in hemophilic patients under treatment in comparison to healthy control. Conclusiondeclination inthe level ofimmunological Marker (salivary IgA) in hemophilic patients as compared to normal healthy individuals. Key wordhemophilia, immunological marker (salivary IgA)

Keywords: hemophilia, immunological marker salivary IgA
