The patient was a young girl who presented with 5 years history of excessive joint mobility, difficulty in wound healing and formation of thin scars over the extensor aspects of the limbs. There was no history of any bleeding tendency, joint subluxation or eye complaints. On examination, the skin was soft and hyperextensible and the joints exhibited a great range of mobility. There were multiple paper-thin scars over the extensor aspects of elbows, knees and shins. There was a `molluscoid pseudotumour` over her right elbow. The patient was diagnosed as a case of EDS type I on the basis of history and clinical examination. The tumour was excised and the histopathology report was consistent with the diagnosis of molluscoid pseudotumour. She was prescribed Tab Vitamin C 500mg daily. The patient and the parents were explained about the disease, its prognosis and complications.
