Abstract
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a group of hereditary collagen diseases characterized by joint hyperlaxity, skin hyperelasticity, and generalized tissue fragility. We present the case of an 8-year-old child with EDS in its arthrocalasic form type VII, according to the Villefranche classification, who was born to first-cousin parents. There is no curative treatment for EDS, but it is important to make an early diagnosis for optimal symptomatic management of patients and prevention of avoidable complications.
