Abstract
Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome patients often suffer degenerative joint disease at an early age. Performing arthroplasty in these patients is particularly difficult for a number of reasons. In this case report, we describe the second reported case of total hip replacement in Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome, using novel techniques to surmount the problems faced in this challenging condition.Entities:
