Total knee replacements in a patient with the Morquio syndrome.

The Morquio syndrome is a rare disorder which presents with a number of musculoskeletal problems. The literature describing total knee replacement in these patients is sparse. We describe the management of a patient with bilateral instability and pain in the knees using bilateral constrained knee replacements, and followed up for five years with pre- and postoperative knee scores. We highlight the difficulties encountered and discuss the end results.
