Abstract

A physiologic leg axis depends upon a correct anatomic axis, a stable cartilage situation, and intact interrelation of muscle agonists and antagonists. Hemophilic arthropathy of the lower extremity disturbs muscle action and changes the anatomic axis, resulting in axis deviation mainly affecting the hip and knee [12]. The axis deviation is secondarily reinforced by cartilage insufficiency. Abnormal weight-bearing enhances the bleeding tendency in hemophiliacs and accelerates joint destruction as a result. By the same token, axis correction lowers the bleeding tendency [12, 26].
