Abstract
Background: Epidermolysis Bolusa is a great challenge for all anesthesiologists. In this disease even indirect touch and pressure can cause boluses or wounds on skin and membranes of body.
Case report: In this paper we introduce two Epidermolysis Bolusa patients who were brought to the operation room for the amnion graft of finger fusion.
Conclusion: For anesthetic management of these patients, when surgery does not need muscle relaxation and mechanical ventilation, Ketamine is recommended for the prevention of airway manipulation.
