[Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (1 case)]. 1977

P De Unamuno, and A Asensio, and F J Carapeto

A male patient is presented is clinical and histopathological characteristics are typical of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (cutaneous and articular hyperelasticity and cutaneous fragility with the presence of atrophic scars). Looking into the family history we think that other relatives had the same disease and they had died during their childhood due to internal hemorrhages. The patient we present did not have significant hemorrhages in any moment. The elastic fibers in the dermal papilla are reduced giving rise to the appearance of being increased in the middle and deep dermis.
