title: [Recurrent hemarthrosis after cruciate ligament refixation by wire suture. A case report].
abstract: Recurrent haemarthros is described as consequence of cruciate ligament repair. The main cause of haemarthros is described after unisometric fixation of the ligaments which leads to the rupture of the synovia membrane. This is a case report of a young man, who suffered from recurrent haemarthros for several years although he has intensively examined by radiological and arthroscopical means. It was falsely presumed to be a muscular arthrophy. The cause, however, was found in a wire suture, which was used to fix the anterior cruciate ligament in the femoral bone. This suture was laying under the synovia within the ligament and there fore could be seen and taken away arthroscopically only after total synovialectomy.
