Sickle cell anemia or drepanocytosis is a hemoglobinopathy with autosomal recessive inheritance. A longer life expectancy of these patients and the fact that 50% have aseptic osteonecrosis of the hip make total hip arthroplasty a frequent procedure. We present the case of a 34-year-old male diagnosed with homozygous sickle cell disease scheduled for surgery in the operating room. Our aim is to offer perioperative strategies based on a multidisciplinary approach among anesthesiologists, surgeons, and hematologists to avoid complications of the disease itself, exacerbated by moderate-high risk surgeries.
