Bindegewebskrankheiten oder klassische Stoffwechselkrankheiten gehören zu den seltenen Krankheiten und sind in der Regel Multisystemerkrankungen. Beide Krankheitsgruppen werden am Kinderspital Zürich inter- multidisziplinär betreut. Im Folgenden wird anhand konkreter Problemstellungen des kyphoskoliotischen Ehlers-Danlos-Syndroms (kEDS) die interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit an Universitätsklinik...

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV, the vascular type of Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS), is an inherited connective tissue disorder defined by characteristic facial features (acrogeria) in most patients, translucent skin with highly visible subcutaneous vessels on the trunk and lower back, easy bruising, and severe arterial, digestive and uterine complications, which are rarely, if at all, observed ...

A spontaneous coronary artery dissection as the sole presenting feature of vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is an uncommon finding. We present a 33-year-old woman with sudden onset chest pain caused by dissection. Genetic testing revealed underlying cause. Specifically, we show value genetic testing, which in some patients may be only way establishing diagnosis.

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome hypermobility type (EDS-HT) is an underdiagnosed genetic connective tissue disorder that causes joint hypermobility and widespread pain. We present a patient with the chief complaint of shoulder pain, a long history of widespread joint pain, and associated comorbidities. EDS-HT provided a unifying diagnosis and direction for management.

We present three cases of recurrent instability of the elbow in association with the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. The pattern of instability has not previously been reported. We describe our procedure for achieving stability using a bone graft to the olecranon fossa which gave a functional range of movement.

Aortocaval fistula (ACF) is a rare complication of spontaneous abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture, with an incidence of 2-4%. A unique case of ruptured AAA complicated by multiple aortovenous fistulas involving the inferior vena cava and left internal iliac vein is presented, and is the first published report of a patient with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome undergoing surgical treatment for an ACF.

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome-hypermobility type (EDS-HT) is a connective tissue disorder associated with chronic musculoskeletal pain. The diagnosis is based on simple clinical examination, although it is easily overlooked. Herein we present a case of EDS-HT associated with hemorrhoids and suggest that there may be an association between the two conditions.
