Hypovolemic shock due to massive subcutaneous hemorrhage in a patient with musculocontractural Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (mcEDS)
摘要
Musculocontractural Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (mcEDS) is a rare autosomal recessive connective tissue disorder characterized by fragility of skin, vasculature and musculoskeletal structures. We report a case of a young male with CHST14(Carbohydrate sulfotransferase 14)-related mcEDS who developed a massive subcutaneous hematoma following minor trauma, necessitating surgical evacuation. This case highlights the potential for life-threatening bleeding complications in mcEDS and underscores the importance of early recognition and multidisciplinary management.
