Spontaneous haemarthrosis of the knee joint is rare. We report the case of a sixty-three year old woman with recurrent bleeding into her right knee with no apparent cause.On sixth May, arthroscopy and synovectomy were performed. The bleeding seemed to settle, but ten days after the first operation, spontaneous haemarthrosis again appeared while lying on the bed. At the same time, her blood pressure was 240/130mmHg. On the twenty fifth of May, we perfomed open synovectomy and resected osteophytes of the patella and the femoral condyles. Six months post-operatively she has no recurrence of bleeding into her right knee and has no pain.It has been suggested that hypertension has a great influence upon spontaneous haemarthrosis. It is also important to resect synovial lesions accurately as part of the surgical treatment of this disorder.
