This condition associated with musculoskeletal or extraskeletal disorders, currently known as the hypermobility type of EhlersDanlos syndrome (EDS-HT), is considered a disease and is under diagnosed. Other disorders and possible comorbidities are considered in the differential diagnosis or as associated diseases. Objective: This is a bibliographic update on the Joint hypermobility and the hypermobility type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, as well as its associated comorbidities and learning disabilities. We also highlight the importance to identify the special needs in the context of inclusion in the educational system, the use of the body in formal education, and the combination of therapeutic and body techniques as inclusion strategies. Material and Methods: We performed a narrative review of the literature with the intention of identifying, in national and international journals, knowledge built on the thematics of hypermobility type of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome in BIREME, LILACS database, PubMed, MEDLINE and SciELO electronic library. The keywords used to search the publications were: Joint Hypermobility, Pain, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, hypermobility type of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome type III, Comorbidity, Inclusion. Were included articles published from 2009 to 2014, in Portuguese, English and Spanish. In the data analysis was used descriptive statistics and the material was organized to identify the objectives of the study in the literature. Results: Fourteen relevant studies on Joint hypermobility and the hypermobility type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome met inclusion criteria and were reviewed. Most of
