Clinical vignette
• S G: 20 yo college student
– Spontaneous rupture of the common iliac artery
– Friable tissues, extensive bleeding
– Past history:
• Easy bruising
• Lax joints (fingers, elbows, left shoulder)
• D G: 53 yo mother of SG
– Spontaneous perforation of the sigmoid colon
– Past history
• Easy bruising
• No joint laxity
• Two normal pregnancies
Laboratory analysis
• Skin fibroblasts: abnormal type III collagen
• COL3A1 DNA analysis: Gly25Val
• Diagnosis: Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome,
Type IV
