Abstract
The shoulder is the fourth most common joint affected by recurrent hemarthrosis in hemophilia. During the initial phases of the disease, synovectomy can reduce the joint damage and improve patient’s symptoms. When the joint is severely damaged, shoulder replacement may be the only option for treatment. Replacement of the joint yields to satisfactory pain relief, especially when a glenoid component can be implanted. In cases with glenoid bone stock deficit, it may be impossible to replace it, and hemiarthroplasty may be the only option.
