Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Classical-like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type 1 (clEDS1) is a very rare form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome caused by tenascin-X deficiency, with only 56 individuals reported in medical literature. Tenascin-X is an extracellular matrix protein needed for collagen stability. Previous publications propose that individuals with clEDS1 might be at risk of gastrointestinal (GI) tract perforations and/or tracheal ruptures. The aim of this study was to characterize complications resulting from perforations of the GI tract and/or tracheal rupture in an international case series of individuals with clEDS1 due to disease-related tissue fragility.
METHODS: This case series includes individuals with confirmed clEDS1 and GI perforations and/or tracheal ruptures from participating centers. Researchers who previously reported such individuals were contacted for additional information. A retrospective assessment of clinical features was performed.
RESULTS: Fifteen individuals were included. Ten had spontaneous GI perforations, 7 of whom had multiple GI perforations. Almost all had severe diverticulosis. Three individuals experienced iatrogenic tracheal ruptures.
DISCUSSION: Severe GI complications, such as perforation, and tracheal rupture were observed in a substantial number of individuals with clEDS1. As these features seem significantly more common in clEDS1 than in the average population, we advise vigilance during intubation and GI endoscopic interventions of individuals with clEDS1. Routine referrals to clinical geneticists are recommended for patients with symptoms indicative of clEDS1, especially with unexplained GI perforations and connective tissue symptoms. Our findings offer valuable insights for the clinical management of clEDS1 and underscore the importance of specialized care, providing a foundation for improved clinical guidelines and preventive strategies.
