Osteoarthritis (OA) and haemophilic arthropathy (HA) are clinically similar, but pathologically distinct conditions which result in joint pain and loss of function. Distinguishing their disease mechanisms is therefore a key step in the development of curative therapy, as opposed to current symptomatic treatments.
