Periodontal Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VIII (pEDS) is rare and caused by mutation in complement 1 subunit. Lack of attached gingiva, pretibial plaques, joint mobility, skin fragility, and easy bruising consolidate the diagnosis. We describe a case of de novo-mutation of pEDS with generalized periapical cemento dysplasia (PCD) and leukoencephalopathy.

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VIII (EDS-VIII) is a very rare autosomal dominant disease characterized by early-onset periodontitis associated with features of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. We report a 32-year-old man whose chronic leg ulcer led to the diagnosis of EDS-VIII. He had severe periodontitis with complete loss of permanent teeth and skin fragility with thin skin, atrophic scars, and brownish atrophic pretibial plaques. Leg ulcer is not a prominent feature of EDS-VIII. We suggest adding EDS-VIII to the list of rare diseases accounting for chronic leg ulcers, if this case report prompts others to report leg ulcers associated with EDS-VIII.
