Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and diverticula of the bladder.

Cases of two boys, 6 and 4 years old respectively, with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) and large bladder diverticula, are reported. Diverticulectomies were performed, but large diverticula reappeared in both patients. A connection between the increased extensibility of the connective tissue in EDS and the development of bladder diverticula is suggested.
