摘要
The case of a recurrent hemarthrosis of a total knee arthroplasty after the sixth postoperative month is described. Because of disabling pain, the patient underwent an explorative arthrotomy 18 months after implantation of the total I;nee arthroplasty. A hypertrophied vascular mass of synovium was discovered in the lateral gutter and excised with an associated synovectomy: Since the arthrotomy, the hemarthrosis has not recurred. Therefore, in cases of recurrent hemarthrosis of a total knee arthroplasty that becomes disabling, exploration by arthrotomy should he considered.
