Abstract

We described a novel de novo missense variant of the gene encoding Collagen alpha-2(V) chain, associated with the classical Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (cEDS) (OMIM#130010), in a 14-year-old patient who presented with congenital and severe scoliosis, muscle hypotonia, ocular manifestations, and no atrophic scaring. This case expands the phenotypic spectrum of cEDS.

Keywords: COL5A2; classical Ehlers–Danlos syndrome; kyphoscoliosis; molecular modeling; next generation sequencing.
