Aseptic humeral shaft nonunion
Orthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research, 2023Aseptic humeral shaft nonunions are rare lesions, with less than 700 cases per year in France. This low frequency explains why they are difficult to manage. They can be hypertrophic or atrophic, with or without a defect. The diagnosis is made based on radiographs and/or CT scan images.

Humeral shaft fractures account for approximately 7 % of all fractures in adults. They occur after direct trauma such as traffic accidents or after indirect, rotational trauma in sports accidents or falls at home. There are two peaks of incidence in the adult population: the young male and the older female.

Humeral shaft fractures are common in elderly osteoporotic patients with low-energy injuries or young patients with high-energy injuries. Fractures of the humerus account for 3–5% of all fractures. Most may be treated with splints and bracing, but open fractures, vascular injuries, and associated brachial plexus injuries do better with operative ...

The majority of humeral shaft fractures are successfully managed nonoperatively. Indications for surgery include open fractures, associated adjacent articular fractures, ipsilateral forearm fractures, vascular injuries requiring repair, and those with nerve injuries due to high-energy penetrating trauma.

Since Lorenz Böhler postulated in his 1964 summary with the title "Against the operative treatment of fresh humeral shaft fractures" that the operative treatment is the exception in the therapy of humeral fractures times have changed. In the last years a conservative treatment of a humeral fracture is the exception and only used after straight ...

There is still no gold standard for the treatment of humeral shaft fractures. This might be attributed to the fact that several commonly used treatment methods have shown good clinical results. A bimodal age distribution of humeral shaft fractures with frequency peaks between 20 and 30 years old and above 60 years old is reported.

Humeral shaft fractures affect both young and old patients alike through high and low energy mechanisms respectively. Understanding fracture patterns and obtaining an accurate physical exam are key in dictating treatment.
