Abstract

This paper reports the case of a girl who, at the age of 7 years, presented with a saccular aneurysm of a brachial artery. Over the following 8 years a further 15 aneurysms appeared, involving limb and visceral arteries and the aorta. Some, but not all, of these aneurysms have been operated upon. Complications included renovascular hypertension due to bilateral intrarenal aneurysms. She had been followed up for 15 years.

Three other similar cases have been found in the medical literature, and these are also referred to. In two of these cases the affected persons also exhibited some of the other connective tissue anomalies associated with the Ehlers–Danlos syndrome. These were not present in our patient. The relationship between the syndrome of multiple congenital aneurysms and the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is discussed.
