The results of genetic investigation of Ehlers - Danlos syndrome in the kindred of 205 members are presented. The autosomal dominant inheritance hypothesis was tested using two modes of ascertainment, complete and truncated. The data from the segregation analysis provide evidence for the Ehlers - Danlos syndrome type I being inherited as an autosomal dominant trait.
