Background: Collagen XI is a fibril-forming collagen typically associated with type II collagen tissues but is also expressed in type I collagen-rich tendons, especially during development. We previously showed that tendon-targeted (Scx-Cre) Col11a1 knockout mice have smaller tendons in adulthood with aberrant fibril structure and impaired mechanical properties. However, the manifestation of this phenotype is not clearly understood.

Objective: To explore the genetic etiology of a fetus with short limbs identified by prenatal ultrasonography.
Methods: A fetus detected with short limb malformations at Shengjing Hospital Affiliated to China Medical University on October 25, 2021 was selected as the study subject. Prenatal ultrasound and post-abortion imaging were carried out to determine the phenotypic characteristics of the fetus.

Recently, an autosomal recessive subtype of connective tissue disorder within the spectrum of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), named classical-like EDS type 2 (clEDS2), was identified. clEDS2 is associated with biallelic variants in the adipocyte enhancer binding protein 1 () gene, specifically, affecting its aortic carboxypeptidase-like protein (ACLP) isoform. We described the 15th patient (13th family) diagnosed with clEDS2.
