Full Text

Abstract

One of the little-studied problems in the clinic of internal medicine is the hypermobility syndrome (HS) - symptom group of phenotypic features and clinical manifestations of connective tissue dysplasia. The HS has a very broad spectrum of clinical markers. A variety of periarticular soft tissue lesions (tendinitis, epicondylitis, other entezopathies, bursitis) with recurrent course are typical for patients with HS. The article presents the main approaches to clinical assessment and therapeutic tactics in patients with HS and soft tissue pathology.
