Спонтанные перфорации желудка и 12-перстной кишки у детей с синдромом Элерса-Данлоса

Abstract

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is based on hereditary systemic dysfunction of the connective tissue caused by impaired collagen synthesis. Depending on the individual mutation, the clinical manifestations of the syndrome can range from mild to life-threatening. The result of a violation of collagen synthesis is the proliferation of elastic fibers, loss of compactness and disorientation of collagen fibers, fragility of the vessel wall and expansion of their lumen. And, given that connective tissue fibers are present in almost every organ, the manifestations of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome are polymorphic and generalized, which often complicates the verification of this disease. The most clinically important is the Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome IV (vascular) type, which occurs as a result of mutations in the COL3A1 and COL1A1 genes and manifests itself in a tendency to spontaneous rupture of large arteries and hollow organs (intestinal perforation, strokes, rupture of the spleen, etc.), poor wound healing, fragility soft tissues, impaired hemostasis. The article describes our own experience of treating 4 patients with spontaneous ruptures of internal organs, including those of a recurrent nature.
