RESUMO
We present the case of a 46 year-old woman with the classic type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome who developed the rare manifestations of colon diverticula and mitral valve prolapse. We emphasize on clinical features and complications associated to this type of the syndrome, which gradually developed in our patient. A review of the literature referring to the epidemiology, molecular basis and manifestations of the classic type Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is also discussed.
