Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, specifically EDS4, can be a dangerous condition. Clinicians should aware of this when referring such patients for any interventional procedure. An MDT approach adopted to help plan perioperative treatment and care.

Patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV have thin-walled, friable arteries and veins. Invasive procedures carry a significantly increased risk for perforation of blood vessels. The aim of this case report is to demonstrate the feasibility and potential benefits of using a stereotactic magnetic navigation system (MNS) for mapping and ablation under these very special circumstances. A 45-yea...

In this case, we present a spontaneous diaphragmatic rupture in a patient with type III Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. The patient presented with worsening shortness of breath after failure of medical therapy for a presumed pneumonia. A CT scan was obtained which showed diaphragma...

Type 4 Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS 4) is the most malignant form of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, often accompanied by neurovasacular complications secondary to vessel dissection or aneurysms. The fragile nature of connective tissue in these patients makes exovascular and endovascular treatment hazardous. We have treated four patients with EDS 4 over the last 8 years by using neuroendovascular proced...

The Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS) are a group of connective tissue disorders characterized by triad of joint hypermobility, skin extensibility, and tissue fragility. Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV places patients at risk for life-threatening, spontaneous, vascular or visceral rupture due to reduced or abnormal secretion of type III collagen. We present an adolescent male who was found to have a...

Controlled choice over public schools attempts giving parents selection options while maintaining diversity of different student types. In practice, diversity constraints are often enforced by setting hard upper bounds and hard lower bounds for each student type. We demonstrate that, with hard bounds, there might not exist assignments that satisfy standard fairness and non-wastefulness properti...
