Abstract
Haemophilia is a rare X-linked congenital bleeding disorder.Which is characterized by a deficiency in coagulation factors (CFs) and also divided into two types: haemophilia A and B. the aim of the study Complication and long term results of total knee joint Arthroplasty from Haemophilic Arthropathy patients. Forty two knees undergoing intensive hemophiliacspecific physical therapy after total knee arthroplasty, at an average age of 46 years, were followed to an average 50 months. For all patients, flexion contracture advanced from ?10.5 stages preoperatively to ?5.1 ranges at final comply with-up (p =0.02).Knees with preoperative flexion less than 90 degrees were compared to knees with preoperative flexion greater than 90 degrees. Patients with preoperative flexion much less than ninety ranges experienced progressed flexion (p = 0.02), together with improved arc variety of motion (ROM) and reduced flexion contracture. For those patients with specific twelve-month and final follow-up data points, there was a significant gain in flexion between twelve months and final follow-up (p = 0.02).Hemophiliacs with the poorest flexion benefited most from focused quadriceps stretching to a more functional length, motivation for hemophiliac patients in terms of long-term improvements after total knee arthroplasty
