Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome (EDS) comprises ten types. EDS IV is the most severe type because of its often lethal complications, such as arterial rupture. EDS IV is caused by an abnormality of collagen type III as a result of mutations in the corresponding gene COL3A1. A collagen type III abnormality is also seen in patients with EDS without the classical severe EDS IV phenotype. We report on 11 patients with type III collagen abnormality and normal collagen V in whom clinically EDS II, III, and IV…

Periodontal Ehlers–Danlos syndrome associated with type III and I collagen deficiencies
TLDR
A recent review of published cases shows that EDS‐VIII has distinctive clinical features, which would suggest that it should be considered as a separate entity in future nosological classifications.
Acrogeric phenotype in Ehlers–Danlos syndrome type IV attributed to a missense mutation in the COL3A1 gene
TLDR
The gene for EDSIV has been identified as the COL3A1 gene, located at 2q31±q32, encoding the chains of type III procollagen, and a 31-year-old white female referred to the authors' department with suspected EDS IV was referred to us.
Pregnancy and Delivery in Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (Hypermobility Type): Review of the Literature
TLDR
Cesarean section was deemed the most appropriate delivery method in this patient due to the possible complications including risk of joint dislocation and pain morbidity, and good maternal and neonatal outcomes were achieved.
Treatment of Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome: A Systematic Review
TLDR
Vascular EDS is a serious disorder with high mortality, which does not seem to have been influenced by new treatment methods, and should be used only when necessary, primarily to save the patients' life.
Ehlers–Danlos syndrome type IV with a unique point mutation in COL3A1 and familial phenotype of myocardial infarction without organic coronary stenosis
TLDR
It is shown that Ehlers–Danlos syndrome type IV with a unique point mutation in COL3 A1 and familial phenotype of myocardial infarction without organic coronary stenosis without organic heart attack cannot be assigned to a single carrier gene.

Decreased collagen ratio type I/III in association with hemorrhoidal disease
TLDR
Quality of collagen formation in the corpus cavernosum recti in patients with hemorrhoids degree III and IV in comparison to persons without showed a significant disorder in collagen metabolism, and pathophysiological process of hemorrhoidal disease seems to be associated with this.
EHLERS DANLOS SYNDROME WITH PREGNANCY OS SYNDROME WITH PREGNANCY OS SYNDROME WITH PREGNANCY OS SYNDROME WITH PREGNANCY OS SYNDROME WITH PREGNANCY
TLDR
A 32 years old lady, G5 P0 A4 was admitted in labour room with gestational amenorrhoea of 20 weeks with the history of fall on the same day, as an emergency case, and her caesarean section was planned.
Vascular malformations of the gastrointestinal tract.
Vascular malformations of the gastrointestinal tract may be diagnosed at any age. They may present with bleeding, anaemia, or if they form a mass lesion, with intussusception. Many lesions remain…

Cerebrovascular disease in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV.
TLDR
Two patients with cerebrovascular complications of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV with spontaneous internal carotid artery dissection and a 46-year-old woman with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage were both deficient in collagen type III, analyzed in cultured skin fibroblasts.

A family with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type III/articular hypermobility syndrome has a glycine 637 to serine substitution in type III collagen.
TLDR
Mutations of type III collagen can cause either EDS IV or EDS III, and two affected family members had virtually normal skin and so more closely resembled the phenotype of articular hypermobility syndrome.
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and pregnancy: association of type IV disease with maternal death.
TLDR
A maternal death with type IV is reported, and the literature for obstetric complications of the syndrome by type is reviewed, finding recommendations for managing pregnancies complicated by EDS.

Mutations in the COL5A1 gene are causal in the Ehlers-Danlos syndromes I and II.
TLDR
These findings confirm the causal role of collagen V in at least a subgroup of EDS I, prove that E DS I and II are allelic conditions, and represent a, so far, unique example of a human collagen disorder caused by substitution of a highly conserved cysteine residue in the C-propeptide domain of a fibrillar collagen.
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome has varied molecular mechanisms.
TLDR
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a group of variable clinical entities which share a propensity to skin fragility, joint laxity, and ligamentous fragility or shortening and the systemic implications, complications, and associations of EDS were largely unrecognised for many years although the association of congenital hip dislocations was described early.
COL3A1 mutations cause variable clinical phenotypes including acrogeria and vascular rupture
TLDR
Twenty mutations of the collagen III gene (COL3AI) are analysed by hislological, protein and molecular DNA techniques, most of which cause premature arterial fragility, thin skin and variants of vascular Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome.
