Abstract
A 52-year-old, trans-femoral amputee with haemophilia was hospitalized because of ambulatory problems arising from the osteo-arthropathic involvement of other major articulations. Reduced function in the upper limbs, caused by the effects of recurrent haemarthroses, resulted in additional problems concerning the usage of auxiliary ambulatory aids. The advantages and disadvantages of traditional and experimental crutches highlight the functional problems of ambulation in persons with concomitant upper limb pathologies.
