Functional benefit of joint surgery in patients with non-vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome: results of a retrospective study
Surgery for joint instability has a greater chance of success when it is carried out in patients with a known diagnosis of EDS before surgery. The majority of patients were satisfied with their surgery and, with the exception of the knee, there was a low rate of reoperations (≤ 50%). Arthroscopic procedures have an important role to play in these patients, particularly when surgery is performed on the knee.
