Which condition is NOT associated with disseminated intravascular coagulopathy?

Disseminated intravascular coagulopathy (DIC) is a serious condition characterized by widespread activation of the coagulation cascade, leading to the formation of blood clots throughout the small blood vessels, which can subsequently result in severe bleeding due to consumption of clotting factors and platelets.

The condition that is not associated with DIC is hemophilia. Hemophilia is a genetic disorder that primarily affects the body's ability to form blood clots, as it is caused by a deficiency in specific clotting factors (such as Factor VIII in hemophilia A or Factor IX in hemophilia B). Unlike DIC, which involves overactivation of the coagulation system, hemophilia results in a failure to properly form clots. Individuals with hemophilia often experience prolonged bleeding, especially after injuries or surgery, but the underlying mechanism is entirely different from that of DIC.

In contrast, acute promyelocytic leukemia can lead to DIC due to the release of pro-coagulant factors from leukemic cells. Snakebites can introduce toxins that trigger clotting processes leading to DIC. Placenta previa, especially when accompanied by placental abruption or other complications, can also be associated with DIC due to
