Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a hereditary tissue and collagen synthesis disorder that can predispose patients to gynecologic and obstetric complications. Female patients often suffer from bothersome pelvic floor disorders, but due to the medical complexity of EDS, special considerations are needed for the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse and associated incontinence. In this paper, we present three unique cases of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in EDS patients and delve deeper into the multidisciplinary approach involving urogynecology, rheumatology, physiatry, gastroenterology, and anesthesiology required to appropriately manage this condition.
埃勒斯-当洛综合征(EDS)是一种遗传性组织和胶原蛋白合成障碍疾病,可使患者易患妇科和产科并发症。女性患者常患有令人困扰的盆底功能障碍,但由于EDS的医学复杂性,在治疗盆腔器官脱垂及相关尿失禁时需要特殊考虑。在本文中,我们介绍了3例EDS患者发生盆腔器官脱垂(POP)的独特病例,并深入探讨了为妥善处理这种情况所需的涉及泌尿妇科、风湿病学、物理医学与康复、胃肠病学和麻醉学的多学科方法。
