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.

Fractures of the humeral shaft are common injuries with multiple management strategies. Many still regard nonoperative management as the standard of care; however, as the understanding of these injuries increases, treatment recommendations are also evolving.

Injury, 2014
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.

Orthopaedic Nursing, 2003
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.

Epidemiologic Features of Humeral Fractures
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1982Five hundred sixty-four Rochester, Minnesota, residents had a total of 586 humeral fractures during the period from 1965 to 1974. Of these, 47% involved the proximal humerus, and 20% the humeral shaft, and 33% the distal humerus. The incidence of humeral fractures associated with severe trauma was relatively higher among children and young adults, and ...

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.

Humeral shaft fractures: a review
Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 2011Summary Humeral shaft fractures are common orthopaedicinjuries that can often be managed nonoperatively withhigh union rates and excellent results as the generaloutcome. Speciļ¬c indications exist for operativemanagement and include polytrauma patients, openfractures, certain fracture patterns, and failure to main-tain an acceptable closed reduction ...

Distal Humeral Fractures in the Adult
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986Distal humeral fractures in the adult often are complicated by pseudarthrosis, pain, and limitation of motion. Of 29 adult patients with distal humeral fractures treated in teaching hospitals, 22 obtained acceptable results. Twenty-two percent of those treated by open methods and 36% of those treated by closed methods had unacceptable results.
