Haematology

Our Haematology and Coagulation Unit provides comprehensive care for patients with a wide range of malignant and benign conditions. Operating in both Lund and Malmö, we carry regional responsibilities for conditions such as acute leukaemia and stem cell transplantation, as well as national obligations in collaboration with Stockholm and Gothenburg for managing patients with inherited bleeding disorders.

We also oversee the Coagulation Centre, which functions as an integrated unit alongside several of the hospital’s other specialist clinics.

Research

Our research is conducted as part of the Coagulation Centre Malmö, a highly specialised hub for bleeding and clotting disorders within Region Skåne. This unique combination of clinical and chemical expertise encompasses the Coagulation Clinic, a unit within the Medical Clinic, and the Coagulation Laboratory, part of Clinical Chemistry at Skåne University Hospital.

The Coagulation Centre serves as Sweden's national centre for evaluating bleeding and clotting disorders, receiving patients and blood samples from across the country for specialised investigations.

In 1974, the coagulation unit in Malmö was designated Scandinavia’s only International Treatment and Training Centre by the World Federation of Hemophilia. In this role, we have treated many international haemophilia patients, often addressing severe complications of the disease. Additionally, we regularly host foreign doctors and healthcare professionals for training purposes.
