Abstract

Hemorrhagic joint effusions are rarely seen in patients with haemoglobinopathies. Joint effusions often develop in association with deferiprone-related arthropathy in beta thalassaemia patients. Here we report a very rare case of bilateral knee and hip joint effusions in a case of hemoglobin E (HbE) beta thalassemia patient.
