Management of a Femur Shaft Fracture With Nancy Nail in the Setting of Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa: A Case Report.

Management of bone fractures must achieve both reduction and stability. However, dermatological conditions such as dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa can lead to catastrophic events when operating on the patient's bone fracture, possibly leading to wound infections and fracture nonunion. Here, we report the case of a 20-year-old female with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa who had suffered from a femur fracture after a fall from the bed. The fracture management was challenging due to the severe condition; however, the use of the Nancy nail was efficient. Due to the rarity of the disease, modifications due to the challenges faced during the patient care approach were accomplished to prevent any harm to the patient. Even though the management was challenging, the outcome was good.
