Two vascular complications of the Ehlers—Danlos syndrome

European Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1993
Patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV have thin walled, friable arteries and veins and are prone to spontaneous arterial rupture. We present a patient who suffered severe damage to the common femoral vein during surgery for varicose veins and who subsequently suffered a spontaneous rupture of the right external carotid artery, treated by ...

[Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome].

Presse medicale (Paris, France : 1983), 2007
The vascular type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a rare genetic disease transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. It is distinguished from other forms of EDS by its unstable acrogeric morphotype and by vascular, gastrointestinal, and obstetrical complications.

Changing Patterns in the Vascular Form of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

Archives of Surgery, 1986
We report and analyze two cases of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) type 4. The first manifestation of the disease was a spontaneous perforation of the colon in a 47-year-old man; he was successfully reoperated on five years later for the rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

Cardiology in Review, 2012
The Ehlers-Danlos syndrome consists of a group of inherited connective tissue disorders caused by defects in the synthesis of collagen. The vascular type 4 form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (VEDS) is associated with serious vascular complications in young adults, such as the spontaneous rupture of large-caliber and medium-caliber arteries, often without ...

Concurrent Splenic Peliosis and Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2009
This case report describes concurrent splenic peliosis and vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) in a 59-year-old male patient. After splenic rupture due to peliosis, the complicated postoperative period hinted at the possibility of vascular EDS. This diagnosis was confirmed by genetic testing, which revealed a novel point mutation in the COL3A1 gene ...

Understanding vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome

Impact, 2018
The discovery of experimentally derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) has fostered prospects of patient-specific cell replacement therapies, novel toxicology and drug screening assays, and informative cell models for understanding disease pathogenesis.

Vascular complications in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.

The American surgeon, 1994
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) type IV results in a high incidence of vascular lesions. The extreme fragility of arteries is associated with multiple aneurysm formation, spontaneous rupture, and dissection. Surgical management of patients with this disorder is hazardous and often unrewarding. In this report we describe the difficulties encountered in the

Clinical and Genetic Features of Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2002
Vascular Ehlers Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a rare autosomal dominant inherited disorder of connective tissue resulting from mutation of the COL3A1 gene encoding type III collagen. Affected individuals are prone to serious vascular, intestinal, and obstetrical complications.

Vascular complications in the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.

Acta chirurgica Scandinavica, 1983
The Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a rare condition, which usually is easily recognized. In one type of this disease, type IV, arterial fragility dominates, and the syndrome may remain undiscovered until the patient has a traumatic or spontaneous arterial rupture.
