Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, spondylodysplastic type (EDSSPD) is a rare autosomal recessive connective tissue disorder, caused by biallelic B4GALT7, B3GALT6, and SLC39A13 mutations. The majority of EDSSPD patients presented with short stature, skin hyperextensibility, facial dysmorphisms, peculiar radiological findings, muscle hypotonia and joint laxity.
