Prevalence of Female Athletes with Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tear Presenting with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome: A Case Report

Josh Landers*

Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a connective tissue disorder characterized by joint hypermobility, which may predispose individuals to musculoskeletal injuries such as Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) tears. This case report examines the prevalence of EDS in female athletes aged 14-25 who have sustained ACL tears. Our findings suggest a higher occurrence of EDS among this population than previously reported in the general population, highlighting the need for early screening and preventive measures for all athletes, with emphasis on females due to their higher risk.
