Neuromuscular manifestations in a patient with ehlers-danlos syndrome type IV.

We present a case of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) type IV with associated neuromuscular manifestations. The patient presented with nonspecific myopathic-type symptoms and later developed a spontaneous median mononeuropathy in the forearm. We believe that the case presented here complements current published neuromuscular manifestations occurring in EDS IV patients and illustrates the urgency of making the diagnosis, given the increased mortality associated with EDS IV.
