Síndrome de Ehlers-Danlos e gravidez: relato de caso

ehlers-danlos syndrome is a connective tissue disease that is rarely associated with pregnancy, but with potentially fatal complications during pregnancy and puerperium, such as vascular and intestinal ruptures. it can also be associated with joint laxity and pain in women; during pregnancy there is a greater risk of prematurity, because of premature rupture of membranes and/or cervical insufficiency. uterine rupture and inversion can also be associated with this syndrome. in the present study, we describe the case of a pregnant woman with ehlers-danlos syndrome, with a favorable evolution, without fetal complications and a good perinatal outcome.
