Abstract: This is a case report of a 21 year old young man who suffers from severe early bilateral hip joint osteoarthrosis. Due to this surprising finding we discuss the differential diagnosis between Kashin-Beck disease, an endemic disease of the patients prior living area (east Siberia) and severe hip joint damage secondary to juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and other diseases.
