A member asked:
Can someone with veds have a negative or inconclusive biopsy result?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Vascular Ehlers-Dan: If by veds you mean vascular ehlers-danlos syndrome, it is unlikely that a biopsy would be negative. Genetic testing exists to confirm a suspected diagnosis if the first biopsies were all negative and the index of suspicion is still very high.
