BackgroundMusculocontractural Ehlers-Danlos syndrome caused by pathogenic variants inCHST14(mcEDS-CHST14) is a recently delineated connective tissue disorder characterized by multisystem congenital malformations and progressive connective tissue fragility-related manifestations. With only 2 cases of mcEDS-CHST14containing precise information on surgical spinal correction being reported to date, there remains no consensus on treatment standards. This study describes the detailed clinical and radiologic outcomes of the third known patient with mcEDS-CHST14who successfully underwent surgery for severe kyphoscoliosis.Case DescriptionThe patient was a 19-year-old girl with mcEDS-CHST14who suffered from low back pain and decreased daily activities caused by progressive kyphoscoliosis. She underwent posterior spinal fusion with an all-pedicle screw construct from T4 to L4 for a preoperative main curve Cobb angle of 69 degrees and kyphotic angle of 27 degrees. Postoperative Cobb angle of the main curve and kyphotic angle were 26 and 6 degrees, respectively. Although sufficient correction was achieved without disseminated intravascular coagulation or other serious sequelae, a large amount of blood (2600 g) was lost due to tissue fragility. Her low back pain was decreased at 1 year after surgery.ConclusionsOn the basis of the present and 2 earlier reported cases, posterior spinal fusion may be a reasonable surgical option for severe progressive spinal deformities in patients with mcEDS-CHST14. However, careful attention is needed for possible massive blood loss from tissue fragility.
