The efficacy of radiosynoviorthesis in the management of chronic haemophilic synovitis has been proven. Like replacement therapy, however, this procedure has no effect on muscle strength or endurance, range of movement, coordination, or the patient's physical condition in general. All the factors just enumerated are essential for the recovery and maintenance of the haemophiliac's quality of life. That is why rehabilitation and physiotherapy are so important, since no medical therapy or surgical procedure are by themselves capable of preventing disabilities.
