Abstract

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is now considered to be a heterogeneous collection of fundamentally distinct disorders. The many and varied sub-types of EDS have been distinguished using clinical, genetic and in some cases biochemical criteria and this has important implications as regards prognosis and the prediction of inheritance patterns.

A case of Type II mitis EDS is described, that presented with multiple odontogenic keratocysts.
