- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 21-year-old male with severe haemophilia A and a FVIII inhibitor. It describes the bilateral upper limb compartment syndrome induced by strenuous exercise in a patient with haemophilia A and a low titre inhibitor. The case highlights the importance of clinical intervention for patients with haemophilia who develop significant musculoskeletal complications and identifies the risk of non-traumatic compartment syndrome in persons with haemophilia.
