RESUMEN
Patients with congenital vascular malformations often suffer from arthralgia, especially of the lower limbs. This orthopaedic disease pattern is defined as destructive, angiodysplatic arthritis or Hauert disease and leads to very early destruction of the joints. By presenting diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms, Hauert disease is emphasized as a possible differential diagnosis in order to minimize the risk of an incorrect diagnosis which might lead to under-, over-, or even incorrect treatment. A minimally invasive transathroscopic therapy in the early stages can lead to significant improvement of symptoms and prevention of progressive joint destruction.
