pubmed-article:1504434 | pubmed:abstractText | We recently had the opportunity to study a 25-year-old male with both Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) and von Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis (VRNF). We describe the clinical manifestations of the case and discuss the probable pathomechanism of the combination of the two syndromes, with a review of the literature. As recent literature suggests that both syndromes are linked to chromosome 17, we conclude that their combination is not coincidental, but genetically linked. | lld:pubmed |
