Popis: A young male diagnosed with severe hemophilia A since childhood, was presented with recurrent joint and urinary bleeding. Annualized bleed rates dropped below five with low dose prophylactic medication.Bleeding in the right knee joint recently aggravated. Due to coexisting HIV infection and advanced hemophilic arthritis, the patient was managed by a multi-disciplinary team(MDT).Total knee arthroplasty was performed by an experienced surgeon using modern prosthesis design and intraoperative navigation technologies.Physical and rehabilitation therapy was provided during the postoperative period, and joint function improved. The MDT managed the young patient with HIV infection and advanced hemophilic arthritis. The patient was diagnosed with osteoporosis thought to have been caused by hemophilia, HIV infection and antiviral drugs; and he received treatment. The treatment of this patient reflects the importance of multidisciplinary cooperation in the management of difficult and rare diseases.
