Beyond Joint Hypermobility: Investigating Bladder Dysfunction in Hypermobile Ehlers‐Danlos Syndrome

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction and Objectives Hypermobile Ehlers‐Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) is the most common subtype of Ehlers‐Danlos Syndrome, a group of connective tissue disorders caused by collagen abnormalities. While musculoskeletal features of hEDS are well characterized, its impact on visceral organs, including the bladder, remains underexplored.
