What is EDS? Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) is a group of genetic collagen disorders that affects the connective tissues throughout the body. This tissue supports the skin, bones, blood vessels, arteries and internal organs.
This is the material that provides strength and structure to skin, bone, blood vessels, and internal organs. The abnormal collagen leads to the symptoms associated with EDS. In some forms of the condition this can include rupture of internal organs or abnormal heart valves.
