Abstract

Toulouse-Lautrec disease is a lysosomal autosomal recessive disease responsible of condensing osteopathy and fragility of the bones. The case report featured a 24-year old woman with a right femoral shaft fracture treated by open reduction and plate fixation. Osteosynthesis by nail was not possible because the femur medullar tunnel was obstructed. Before surgery, the surgeon must be aware of the potential obstruction of the femoral medullar tunnel in this type of patient.
