8 Σεπ 2024 · Humeral shaft fractures are common fractures of the diaphysis of the humerus, which may be associated with radial nerve injury. Diagnosis is made with orthogonal radiographs of the humerus. Treatment can be nonoperative or operative depending on location of fracture, fracture morphology, and association with other ipsilateral injuries.

22 Μαΐ 2022 · Humeral shaft fractures are usually treated with a supportive/hanging cast followed by a supportive splint (e.g. coaptation splinting such as a Sarmiento brace) and infrequently require open reduction.
20 Σεπ 2024 · Proximal humerus fractures are common fractures often seen in older patients with osteoporotic bone following a ground-level fall on an outstretched arm. Diagnosis is made with orthogonal radiographs of the shoulder.
Understand the anatomy and surgical approaches to the humeral shaft. Understand the indications for nonoperative vs operative management of humeral shaft fractures. Understand the use of functional bracing in humeral shaft fractures. Understand the literature comparing ORIF vs IMN.
11 Ιουν 2024 · Proximal humeral fractures usually result from a fall on an outstretched arm. Indirect forces transmitted through the proximal humerus and shoulder cause most fractures. These forces may be compressive, tension, torsion or bending.
Papasoulis et al. in their review article analyzed outcome of 16 case series of functional cast brace treatment of humeral shaft fracture and two comparative studies. 14 They concluded that average healing time is 10.7 weeks, the union rate 94.5%, proximal shaft fractures have higher nonunion rate.
4 Ιουλ 2023 · Objectives: Describe the anatomy pertinent to humerus fractures. Outline the complications of humerus fractures. Summarize the treatment considerations for humerus fractures.
