pubmed:abstractText
Haemophilic arthropathy is joint damage evolving from recurrent joint bleeds that occur in patients suffering from the clotting disorder haemophilia. Insight into the pathogenetic mechanism of this blood-induced arthropathy yields possible treatment targets and modalities useful to reduce this invalidating co-morbidity of haemophilia. Joint bleeding leads to initially independent adverse changes in both the synovial tissue and the articular cartilage. These subsequently influence each other: the synovial inflammatory changes enhancing cartilage damage and vice versa. Consequently, effective treatment strategies will have to affect both pathways.
