[Pathogenesis and therapy of joint inflammation in patients with hemophilia].
This study was aimed at investigation of immune status in patients with hemophilic arthropathies and design of optimal therapeutic programs for them. 103 hemophiliacs were examined. Of them 56 patients had chronic productive synovitis and 47 osteoarthrosis. All the patients displayed higher levels of CIC and immunoglobulins than normal subjects, the highest values being registered in synovitis. Synovial fluid in them contained CIC and IgG, IgA, IgM. The findings suggest that immune disorders are actively involved in pathogenesis of hemophilic arthropathies. Programs of immunocorrecting therapy of synovitides and osteoarthroses including plasmapheresis and intraarticular administration of hormonal and cytostatic drugs produced a clinical response in 80% of the cases. The remission lasted up to 1 year.
