Blocking blood vessel procedures for bleeding-related joint inflammation
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a “blocking” procedure (embolization) can improve long-lasting joint inflammation caused by inherited bleeding disorders. It focuses on people with joint lining inflammation from repeated bleeding into the joint.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have an inherited bleeding disorder (hereditary coagulopathy)
- You have long-lasting joint inflammation from bleeding into the joint (arthropathy from hemarthrosis)
- You have X-ray and MRI scans showing joint inflammation (synovitis)
- You are followed at the Hemophilia Center at HC-FMUSP
- You agree to complete all the planned study check-ins and tests

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether an MRI scan that looks at blood flow can help target a joint embolization procedure to reduce chronic shoulder, hip, or knee pain. It first uses MRI to find signs of increased blood flow, then may use the findings to guide treatment if you qualify.
This study looks at how many adults with moderate or severe hemophilia A have inflammation in their joints (synovitis). It aims to better understand joint health in people with hemophilia A, including those with inhibitors or joint replacements.
This study uses ultrasound to check if joints that are currently healthy stay healthy in people with hemophilia A who are taking emicizumab (Hemlibra) as their regular treatment. It aims to see if this treatment helps prevent joint damage over time.
This study tests a procedure that blocks blood flow to the inflamed joint lining, which may reduce pain and swelling. It is for people with arthritis in one large joint that hasn't improved with standard treatments.
This trial tests a procedure called genicular artery embolization, which blocks small blood vessels around the knee to reduce pain from moderate arthritis. It may help people whose knee pain hasn't improved with medications.
This study looks at tissue from joints affected by hemophilia to find new markers that could help understand and treat joint damage. It is for people with severe hemophilia who need a joint procedure like a fluid removal, synovectomy, or joint replacement.
