Next Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome What is Ehlers-Danlos syndrome? What are the types of Ehlers-Danlos syndromes ? How are the Ehlers-Danlos syndromes treated? What is Ehlers-Danlos syndrome? Ehlers-Danlos syndromes is a group of disorders which share common features including easy bruising, joint hypermobility (loose joints), skin that stretches easily (skin hyperelasticity or laxity), and weakness of tissues. The Ehlers-Danlos syndromes are inherited in the genes that are passed from parents to offspring. They are categorized according to the form of genetic transmission into different types with many features differing between patients in any given type. The fragile skin and loose joints is often a result of abnormal genes that produce abnormal proteins that form an inherited frailty of collagen (the normal protein "glue" of our tissues). In 2001, researchers discovered a new form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome that is caused by an inherited abnormality in a protein other than collagen that also normally plays a role in binding together the cells of our tissues (including the skin, tendons, muscle, and blood vessels). Abnormalities in this protein, called tenascin, also lead to a form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Researchers suspect that tenascin could play a role in regulating the normal distribution of collagen in the connective tissues of the body.

Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (A-lerz-DAN-los SIN-drome) describes a group of hereditary disorders which mainly affect the skin and joints, but may affect other organs. EDS affects the connective tissues the tissues that support various parts of the body such as skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments. In EDS, the fibrous protein collagen is faulty, causing the connective tissue to not be elastic or strong. What Are the Symptoms? There are 9 types of EDS and symptoms differ depending on the type of EDS. Type I and III have the following: Skin problems, include fragile skin that bruises or tears; soft skin, and slow-healing wounds. Joint problems, including loose, unstable joints; "double-jointed" or overextension of the joints; arthritis-like problems.

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a group of disorders that affect connective tissue, the tissue that supports skin, bones, tendons, ligaments, blood vessels, and other organs. Defects in connective tissue cause the signs and symptoms of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, which vary from mildly loose joints to life-threatening complications.

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, arthrochalasia type Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, classical type Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, dermatosparaxis type Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, hypermobility type ... Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, vascular type In the past, there were more than 10 recognized types of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. In 1997, researchers proposed a simpler classification that reduced the number of major types to six and gave them descriptive names. These six major types are listed above. Other types of the condition may exist, but they have been reported only in single families or are not well characterized.

36. The Ehlers Danlos Foundation Of New Zealand Support for sufferers of the ehlersdanlos syndrome and related Hypermobility Syndrome and provides some information for the medical profession and general public. http://www.edfnz.org.nz

Ehlers-Danlos Foundation of New Zealand The Ehlers Danlos Foundation of New Zealand began as a support group in May 1995 when it was believed there were only twelve families in the country with the condition. Of course this proved a remarkable underestimation of the number of people within New Zealand who actually have EDS. Also catering for people with Hypermobility Syndrome the group achieved charitable status in early 2000. The aim of the organization is to provide emotional support for sufferers of the Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and HMS, their spouses and family members. Also to create awareness of these conditions by the distribution of information amongst the medical profession and general public. Therefore a newsletter "Loosely Speaking" is published three times a year. It contains both medical information on EDS and personal stories written by the members of the EDFNZ. Individuals with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome can be affected differently with a variation in the severity and range of symptoms. Because they so often look "normal" it is often difficult to have the condition taken seriously by the medical profession and even within their circle of family and friends. Therefore it can also be an isolating condition and the general lack of awareness and understanding can lead to feelings of frustration, stress and depression. If you're interested in either making a donation or in joining the EDFNZ as a member or Friend of the Foundation please feel free to print out the
