Humeral fractures are challenging injuries to deal with. Thorough patient assessment is necessary on presentation, to evaluate for concurrent injuries and to rule out pathologic fractures. External coaptation is not considered a viable treatment option for the vast majority of humeral fractures and surgical stabilisation is recommended.

Multifocal humeral fractures are extremely rare. These may affect the neck and the shaft, the shaft alone, or the diaphysis and the distal humerus. There is no classification of these fractures in the literature.From 2004 to 2010, 717 patients with humeral fracture were treated surgically at our department.

Fractures of the forearm in an adult may involve the ulna, the radius, or both, or one may be fractured and the other dislocated. Because the ulna and the radius are joined by the interosseous membrane, injury to one often also affects the other. In the same way, the humerus can be effected from injuries of pressure at the site of the elbow.

The epidemiology of humeral shaft fractures
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1998We have analysed 249 consecutive fractures of the humeral shaft treated over a three-year period. The fractures were defined by their AO morphology, position, the age and gender of the patient and the mechanism of injury. Open fractures were classified using the Gustilo system and soft-tissue injury, and closed fractures using the Tscherne system ...

Epidemiology of proximal humeral fractures
Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1987In an urban population of half a million, all proximal humeral fractures were recorded in 1983. A total of 565 fractures, of which 77 per cent occurred in women, were seen. The overall incidence per 100,000 was 48 in men and 142 in women, with an exponential increase from the 5th decade of age.
