Introduction: Acquired hemophilia A is very rare autoimmune disorder caused by an autoantibody to factor VIII that interferes with its coagulant function. It may be associated a number of conditions such as lymphoproliferative disorders, drugs and solid malignancies. Hemarthrosis in clinical presentation was never reported cases induced penicillin. Case presentation: We report 65-year-old male,...

Synovial hemangioma is a rare benign malformation of the synovium. It presents frequently in the knee with pain, tenderness, intermittent swelling and recurrent hemarthrosis. MRI can be helpful in diagnosis of synovial hemangioma. In this paper, we present a 45-year-old lady with chronic symptoms and obscure clinical symptoms for 35 years which finally diagnosed and managed arthroscopically as ...

Hemarthrosis, the hallmark of severe hemophilia, is the major cause of serious bleeding events, disability and reduced quality of life in patients with factor VIII or factor IX deficiency. Joint bleeding is one of the greatest challenges confronting individuals treating hemophilia, and its economic impact is enormous. This article reviews the current management of hemophilic joint bleeding and ...

Optimization of metal artifact reduction pulse sequences over the past decade has rendered MRI valuable in knee arthroplasty assessment. MRI can reliably predict the presence and extent of infection, component loosening and polyethylene wear, and component malrotation, and it can evaluate the integrity of surrounding soft tissue structures. Using dynamic contrast-enhanced angiographic technique...

Four patients with hemarthrosis of the knee, synovial rupture, and ecchymoses are reported. The patients presented with calf pain and swelling and large ecchymoses, which eventually extended to the ankle as a crescent about one or both malleoli. Appreciation of this physical sign, which appears to be characteristic for the hemorrhagic subset of synovial rupture, should alert the physician to th...

A 52-year-old man with no significant medical history presented to the emergency department (ED) after a mechanical fall onto his nondominant left hand. Physical examination was suggestive of a glenohumeral dislocation, and radiographs confirmed a subcoracoid anterior glenohumeral dislocation (Figure 1). The patient was neurovascularly intact, but complained of severe pain and refused initial a...

We report a case of intra-articular angiolipoma of the knee. This case report describes our experience in excising an intra-articular angiolipoma of the knee joint. Complete resection under arthroscopy was performed in a 30-year-old man. Two years after the surgery, no evidence of recurrence was seen. Intra-articular angiolipomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of intra-artic...
