We here report on a 20-year-old female patient with EDS due to a homozygous CHST14 single nucleotide deletion resulting in D4ST-1 deficiency, accompanied by muscle hypoplasia and muscle weakness. Findings of muscle ultrasound, electromyography, and muscle biopsy pointed to a myopathy, similarly as in other EDS types. This myopathy probably contributes to the gross motor developmental delay in this type of EDS.
我们在此报告一例 20 岁女性患者,因 CHST14 单核苷酸缺失导致 D4ST-1 缺乏而患有 EDS,伴有肌肉发育不良和肌肉无力。肌肉超声、肌电图和肌肉活检的结果提示肌病,与其他 EDS 类型相似。这种肌病可能导致这种 EDS 类型的粗大运动发育迟缓。
