Laryngological manifestations of connective tissue diease with hypermobility such as ehlers-danlos syndrome (EDS) are not well defined in the literature. EDS is an inherited, hetrogeneous, connective tissue disorder characterized by joint hypermobility, skin extensibility, and joint dislocations. A case series of 9 patients is presented with varying laryngological complaints. Common comorbities include postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)/laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD). Six patients were singers. Videostroboscopic parameters and treatment courses are described. It may be beneficial to view patients with EDS and laryngological complaints through a holistic lens as many may need interdisciplinary assessment and management. Laryngoscope, 134:894-896, 2024.
