Core Tip |
Hemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder due to deficiency of factor Ⅷ (hemophilia A) or factor Ⅸ (hemophilia B) resulting in insufficient thrombin generation leading to recurrent intra-articular hemorr-hages (hemarthroses). Prevention of hemarthroses with intravenous infusions of the deficient protein from infancy to adulthood (primary prophylaxis) should be considered to achieve optimal outcomes. If factor replacement therapy (FRT) is insufficient, or if patients are not adherent to the prescribed regimen, recurrent hemarthroses results in chondrocyte apoptosis (cartilage degeneration) and hypertrophy of the synovium (syno-vitis). Many surgical interventions are available for the knee joint. For example, to treat synovitis recalcitrant to FRT, there are two primary orthopedic modalities: Radiosynovectomy and arthroscopic synovectomy. This article reviews the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treat-ment of hemophilic arthropathy of the knee. |
