The musculoskeletal manifestations of hemophilia A and B are some of the most common presenting symptoms and continue to be challenging to practitioners. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Easy Bruising

  The main symptoms of hemophilia are excessive bleeding and easy bruising. Blood tests can tell if you have it. The main treatment is injecting the missing clotting factor into the bloodstream. [icdlist.com]

  DIAGNOSIS  Suspected in patients presenting with history of Easy bruising in early child hood Spontaneous bleeds Excessive bleeding following trauma or surgery 5. [slideshare.net]

• Arthritis

  BACKGROUND: Ankle arthrodesis is an accepted treatment for patients with advanced disabling tibiotalar arthritis, mostly in osteoarthritis, rheumatoid, and posttraumatic arthritis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Septic Arthritis Until the early 1980s, septic arthritis rarely occurred in hemophilic patients. [musculoskeletalkey.com]

  The late sequelae of joint hemorrhage appear in adolescence or adulthood as a joint deformity, contracture, and/or degenerative arthritis. [emedicine.medscape.com]

  The objective is to correct joint deformity and to restore function. [boneandspine.com]

  In many cases, joint deformities have to be treated by open orthopedic surgery. State-of-the-art treatment of patients with hemophilia requires a multidisciplinary team. [jahjournal.org]

  EARLY INTERVENTION - SPLINTING, ORTHOTICS, AND ASSISTIVE DEVICES Splints • To immobilize a bleeding or painful joint • To prevent deformity in chronic bleeding joints and/or to prevent postsurgical deformity • To correct joint deformity if a contracture [slideshare.net]

• Joint Effusion

  In the present review, we summarize major literature evidence on the use of joint US for the evaluation of markers of disease activity (joint effusion and synovial hypertrophy) and of degenerative damages (osteochondral changes) in patients with hemophilia [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Radiographic findings at this stage are generally limited to a dense joint effusion (hemarthrosis). Following an acute episode of hemarthrosis,the synovium must absorb the blood degradation products. [appliedradiology.com]

• Ankle Pain

  Around 50% of hemophilic patients suffer from ankle pain and radiological signs of HA. OBJECTIVE: To review current treatment of HA of the ankle in PWH. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  CASE NUMBER 118 Note This is a patient who presents with chronic ankle pain. Frontal and lateral radiographs of the ankle were obtained. The red arrows on the frontal radiograph demonstrate severe narrowing of the tibiotalar joint space. [ctisus.com]

  This may exceed that of rheumatoid arthritis. [36] Characteristics/Clinical Presentation The characteristics and clinical presentation of ankle arthropathies such as different forms of arthritis can be described as followed: Ankle pain Stiffness Swelling [physio-pedia.com]

• Arthralgia

  Response to RSO was evaluated 6 months post-treatment by measuring changes in intensity of arthralgia according to the visual analog scale (VAS), bleeding frequency, and range of motion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  If the patient later suffers from chronic arthralgias, corticosteroids should be avoided [24]. Steroids are administered when inflammatory symptoms are resistant to NSAIDs [75]. [physio-pedia.com]

• Distractibility

  CONCLUSION: The ideal treatment for the hemophilic ankle when hematologic prophylaxis fails includes physical medicine and rehabilitation, orthoses, radiosynovectomy, arthroscopic ankle debridement (in the initial stages of cartilage degeneration), and ankle distraction [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Impulsivity

  INTERVENTIONS: The hemophilic group followed a surface electrical stimulation program (frequency 45 Hz, impulse 200 micros, 10s on/10s off) over an 8-week period on the biceps brachii of both arms. The control group did no training of any kind. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Unable to Walk

  He goes in wheelchair unable to walk since the previous five months. Radiographs confirm a grade III hemophilic arthropathy in the right knee and grade II for the left elbow. [medcraveonline.com]

• Lymphocytic Infiltrate

  HA resembles much more to the rheumatoid arthritis because a presence of thick synovial membrane and large lymphocytes infiltration. However, in its final stages, HA resembles OA and that is when IA injections of MSCs are commonly used. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The association between hyperemia (pathologic BPI) and treatment outcome was examined using nonparametric tests for independent samples. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

While the advent of factor replacement therapy has dramatically changed the course of treatment and prognosis for patients with hemophilia, the authors argue that the economic burden of treating these patients is still very high. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Collection of cytokine and growth factor samples from subjects on prophylaxis and with joint disease should be considered as a first step to more clearly define the etiology of hemophilic arthropathy. [bloodjournal.org]
