We describe the presence of EDS type II in a family whose diagnosis was lately established by medical consultation of one of its members suffering from hyperuricemia and gout. We stress the relevance of an early diagnosis of this syndrome as a means to prevent and reduce as much as possible cardiovascular, hemorrhagic and surgical systemic complications associated to this disease.
