Classical Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome with a propensity to arterial events: A new report on a French family with a COL1A1 p.(Arg312Cys) variant

Abstract: Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of connective tissue disorders. Overlapping features including arterial aneurysms/dissections in both classical and vascular EDS are a major challenge in the clinical diagnosis of these subtypes. The COL1A1 p.(Arg312Cys) variant leads to a phenotype of classical EDS with a propensity to arterial complications. Our report describes a twogeneration family with one individual presenting with a dissection of the right external iliac… Show more

“…However, an exact estimation of prevalence and risk of these vascular complaints and possible genotype-phenotype correlations in cEDS are still missing [ 16 , 119 ]. In particular, either the specific c.934C > T, p.(Arg312Cys) variant in COL1A1 or COL5A1 variants causing glycine substitutions at the C-terminal end of the triple helix domain have been associated with propensity to severe arterial events in early adulthood, but these assumptions are still a matter of debate due to the limited number of reports [ 10 14 , 22 , 25 ]. In our cEDS cohort, easy bruising, which is present to a variable degree in all EDS subtypes, was the most common finding (~ 87%).…”

“…The classical (cEDS), vascular (vEDS), and the molecularly unsolved hypermobile (hEDS) EDS subtypes account for more than 90% of patients. cEDS (MIM #130000) has an estimated prevalence of 1/20,000 and it is principally caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in COL5A1 or COL5A2 encoding type V collagen and rarely by the c.934C > T p.(Arg312Cys) missense variant in COL1A1 encoding type I collagen [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14].…”

“…It is associated with potential vascular fragility, ranging from the absence of vascular complication to arterial ruptures in cEDS-affected patients. 9,10,12,13 Interestingly, cardiovascular explorations of our patients showed no major vascular complication except a small thoracic aorta dilatation in patient II.3, but which could also be a ductus diverticulum or a post-traumatic aortic pseudoaneurysm since the patient had a car accident in the past. An annual vascular follow-up will be organized to monitor the evolution of this abnormality.…”

“…A specific arginine to cysteine substitution in proα1(I)‐collagen ( COL1A1 , c.934C>T, p.(Arg312Cys)) was first described in two children with cEDS features (Nuytinck et al, 2000). Subsequently, 15 additional individuals harboring this substitution were reported (Adham et al, 2019; Colombi et al, 2017; Duong et al, 2019; Gaines et al, 2015; Malfait et al, 2007; Ritelli et al, 2013), some of whom presented arterial ruptures (Adham et al, 2019; Gaines et al, 2015; Malfait et al, 2007). Biallelic pathogenic TNXB variants are associated with classical‐like EDS type 1 (clEDS1, MIM #606408), hitherto reported in 51 individuals, with clinical features resembling cEDS except for the absence of atrophic scarring (Burch et al, 1997; Green et al, 2020; Schalkwijk et al, 2001).…”
