RESUMEN
Background: Musculoskeletal problems in haemophiliaoccur due to delayed therapy or lack of detection, leading to joint damage and other complications Orthopaedic surgery is one option to improve deformity of haemophilic patients caused by repeated bleeding. Materials and Methods:This study includes 85 patients in which all musculoskeletal survey was done . Observation and Results: Surgery was recommended in 51 (60%) patients (37 severe haemophilia, 12 moderate and 2 mild). Minor surgery was most common in younger patients, while major surgeries increased proportionately with patient age. Conclusion: Insufficient use of factor replacement and lack of regular supply of factor are major cause for joint damage and other musculoskeletal problems in haemophilic patient.This study is beneficial for assessment of the grade of musculoskeletal problem and identification of the surgical needs of the haemophilic patients.
