Abstract

Patients with haemophilia (PwH) often suffer from joint pain due to repetitive haemarthroses and resulting arthropathy. Literature focuses so far on pain causes, diagnosis or treatment. A summary of prevalence rates, providing facts on the absolute occurrence of pain, is not sufficiently described so far. This review aimed to explore and systematically review different pain conditions, focussing on prevalence rates of pain in adult PwH.
