Popis: The interaction of platelets and coagulation proteins with subendothelial collagen at site of vessel injury is an essential part of the hemostatic pathway. For this reason, bleeding is common in some connective tissue disorders wherein the collagen protein structure is abnormal. This chapter reviews the bleeding manifestations in Ehlers-Danlos and related hypermobility disorders, Marfan syndrome, Loeys-Dietz syndrome, and osteogenesis imperfecta.
