Nerve Lesions in Haemophilia

Nerve lesions in haemophilia are due to external compression or traction upon the nerve due to sudden muscular haematoma, producing a neuroapraxia or an axonotmesis, and thus interrupting nerve function. After treating the muscular haematoma and so the interference with the nerve function, this recovers almost totally, except for the reflexes that remain absent. Since our unit opened in July 1973, we have seen a total of 12 nerve lesions (femoral nerve 9, ulnar nerve 2 and tibialis posterior nerve 1). The clinic of these lesions as well as orthopaedic and haematological treatment is discussed. Total recovery of function took from three to six months after hemorrhage.
