this syndrome is a genetical disorder with symptoms result from deficit in the formation of connective tissue, especially collagen fiber biosynthesis. in these patients, there is hyperelasticity and fragility of the skin and mucosa. injuries sever bleeding, internal bleeding and hemartrosis may be seen in these patients. wounds leave scars after healing. there is recurrent dislocation of the jo...

Arterial injury is a rare complication of knee replacement. We present a delayed presentation which was proven with arteriography and successfully treated with embolisation rather than open surgery. In atypical clinical pictures of swelling and equivocal inflammatory markers, clinicians should consider the differential diagnosis of persistent arterial bleeding.

Congenital knee dislocation is a rare anomaly associated with a variety of neuromuscular diseases and deformities. The etiology of this condition remains unclear, but it is usually associated with a variety of disorders, such as Larsen's syndrome, arthrogryposis, spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Down syndrome, and Streeter's dysplasia.

BACKGROUND Several tendon graft and fixation methods have been introduced in medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction for recurrent patellar dislocation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of MPFL reconstruction using a gracilis autograft fixation without bone tunnel in patients with recurrent patellar instability. METHODS Nine patients (four males and five fema...

The development of inhibitors against administered clotting factors may render replacement therapy ineffective for some hemophilia patients. Such patients are therefore at the highest risk of developing arthropathy. Elective orthopedic surgery (EOS) in hemophilic patients having such inhibitors remains a rare, expensive, and difficult surgery, whose management represents a significant challenge...

Hemophilia A is an inherited bleeding disorder caused by deficiency of coagulation factor VIII. It transmitted in X-linked recessive pattern from female carriers to male children. We report the observation a severe hemophilia newborn with history siblings who present hemarthrosis left elbow. The diagnosis was suspected and confirmed through biologic investigations imaging. Therefore, patient pu...
