Treatment of Ehlers Danlos Syndromes
Early recognition and treatment of complications There is no specific treatment for Ehlers-Danlos syndromes. Trauma should be minimized. Protective clothing and padding may help. If surgery is done, hemostasis must be meticulous. Wounds are carefully sutured, and tissue tension is avoided. Obstetric supervision during pregnancy and delivery is mandatory. Genetic counseling should be provided.
