RESUMEN

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a collection of genetic disorders caused by abnormalities in collagen and typified by hyperflexible joints, hyperextensible skin, and a tendency for easy bruising and tissue injuries. Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS), the most common subtype, presents a diagnostic challenge due to the lack of specific genetic markers. This case report describes a 13-year-old girl with hEDS, presenting with hypermobility, thoracolumbar scoliosis, constipation, glucosuria, microscopic hematuria, urticaria, and intermittent episodes of bilateral hand and feet swelling. Genetic testing revealed a variant of uncertain significance in the COL9A2 gene. An echocardiogram showed a mildly dilated aortic root. The complexity of her presentation underscores the challenges in diagnosing and managing hEDS with multisystem involvement.
