Despite their complexity, early intervention is essential for maximising recovery and reducing complications.\n\nCase Report: A 34-year-old male presented with multiple fractures, including a triple-segmental shaft femur fracture, following a high-energy road traffic accident. An intramedullary nail was used for closed reduction and internal fixation of the femur fracture, which provided stable fixation while preserving the blood supply and minimising soft-tissue damage.\n\nConclusion: When treating complicated femur fractures, intramedullary nailing should be preferred because it minimises soft-tissue damage while offering stable fixation. It promotes early mobilisation and optimal healing, even with multiple fracture segments.\nKeywords: Triple-segmental, shaft femur fracture, intramedullary nailing, road traffic accident, case report.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.13107\/jocr.2025.v15.i09.6048","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,8]],"date-time":"2025-09-08T11:16:16Z","timestamp":1757330176000},"page":"149-153","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Triple-Segmental Shaft Femur Fracture: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.13107","volume":"15","author":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Sports Injury Centre, Vardhman Mahavir Medical College and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India,","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sankalp","family":"Lal","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Amit Kumar","family":"Jha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Central Institute of Orthopaedics, Vardhman Mahavir Medical College and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India,","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Prabhanjan","family":"Agrawal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Central Institute of Orthopaedics, Vardhman Mahavir Medical College and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India,","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ashish","family":"Kumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Hospital, New Delhi, India.","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Divesh","family":"Jalan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Central Institute of Orthopaedics, Vardhman Mahavir Medical College and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India,","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Deepak","family":"Sharma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Central Institute of Orthopaedics, Vardhman Mahavir Medical College and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India,","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"5271","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"container-title":["Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,8]],"date-time":"2025-09-08T11:16:17Z","timestamp":1757330177000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/jocr.co.in\/wp\/2025\/09\/triple-segmental-shaft-femur-fracture-a-case-report\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"9","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.13107\/jocr.2025.v15.i09.6048","relation":{},"ISSN":["2321-3817"],"issn-type":[{"type":"electronic","value":"2321-3817"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025]]}}}
