title: [Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and pregnancy. Report of a case with favourable outcome].
abstract: Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a heterogeneous group of diseases, where connective tissue laxity is the main feature. Several pregnancy and delivery complications, mainly related to vascular and uterine rupture or to soft tissue tears, are described. A case of a full term pregnancy is reported and the clinical value of obstetrical management is discussed.
