Abstract
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.
期刊介绍:
The Wiener klinische Wochenschrift - The Central European Journal of Medicine - is an international scientific medical journal covering the entire spectrum of clinical medicine and related areas such as ethics in medicine, public health and the history of medicine. In addition to original articles, the Journal features editorials and leading articles on newly emerging topics, review articles, case reports and a broad range of special articles. Experimental material will be considered for publication if it is directly relevant to clinical medicine. The number of international contributions has been steadily increasing. Consequently, the international reputation of the journal has grown in the past several years. Founded in 1888, the Wiener klinische Wochenschrift - The Central European Journal of Medicine - is certainly one of the most prestigious medical journals in the world and takes pride in having been the first publisher of landmarks in medicine.
