Spontaneous haemarthrosis in amyloid arthropathy of the shoulder
1Princess Alexandra Hospital, Brisbane, Qld.
Abstract:
A patient is reported who has had episodes of spontaneous haemarthroses of the shoulder. On aspiration of the acute haemarthrosis, amyloid was found after appropriate staining of the centrifuged sediment. This may be a predisposing factor for haemarthrosis in haemodialysed patients.
