Spontaneous Ruptured Dissection of the Right Common Iliac Artery in a Patient with Classic Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome Phenotype
Abstract
Unlike vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), classic EDS is rarely associated with vascular manifestation. We report the case of a 39-year-old man who presented with acute abdominal pain. At the time of presentation, the patient was in hypovolemic shock, and computed tomography angiogram demonstrated common iliac artery dissection with rupture. He underwent an attempted endovascular repair that was converted to an open repair of a ruptured right common iliac artery dissection. Subsequent genetic testing revealed a substitution of arginine for cysteine in type I collagen, COL1A1 exon 14 c.934C>T mutation, consistent with a rare variant of classic EDS.

Patients with the COL1A1 p.(Arg312Cys) mutation are particularly at risk for vascular events.
“Patients with the p.(Arg312Cys) mutation are particularly at risk for vascular events, highlighting the benefit of molecular confirmation in classical EDS patients for management purposes.”

The COL1A1 p.(Arg312Cys) mutation has subsequently been identified in two other individuals with EDS and complications of vascular fragility.
“The p.(Arg312Cys) mutation has subsequently been identified in two other individuals with EDS and complications of vascular fragility [Ritelli et al., 2013;Gaines et al., 2015].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
