Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome: Current Understanding and Treatment Strategies

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (vEDS) is a rare and severe subtype of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), a group of inherited disorders affecting connective tissue. Unlike other EDS subtypes primarily characterized by joint hypermobility and skin elasticity, vEDS is distinguished by its impact on the vascular system, posing a significant risk of life-threatening complications1. This review aims to provide a concise overview of vEDS, encompassing its genetic basis, clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches, and current treatment strategies.
