Humeral shaft fractures

EFORT Open Reviews, 2021
Humeral shaft fractures are relatively common, representing approximately 1% to 5% of all fractures. Conservative management is the treatment of choice for most humeral shaft fractures and offers functional results and union rates that are not inferior to surgical management.

Elastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing for Pediatric Humeral Shaft Fractures Under Ultrasonographic Guidance: A Retrospective Study

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
ObjectiveFixation with an elastic stable intramedullary nail (ESIN) is a widely used technique for the treatment of humeral shaft fractures. Ultrasonography (US) is used as an auxiliary tool and alternative to radiography during surgery to reduce ...

Closed Compression Nailing Using a New-Generation Intramedullary Nail without Autologous Bone Grafting for Humeral Shaft Nonunion

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2021
Introduction. Although the recommended treatment for humeral shaft nonunion is compression plating with autologous bone grafting, we treated a case of humeral shaft nonunion with an intramedullary nail (IMN) without bone grafting.

A finite element model of the shoulder: application to the changes of biomechanical environment induced by postoperative malrotation of humeral shaft fracture

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Objectives The humerus fracture is one of the most commonly occurring fractures. In this research, we attempted to evaluate and compare the extent of malrotation and biomechanical environment after surgical treatment of humeral shaft fractures. Methods A

Ultrasonographic Measurement of Torsional Side Difference in Proximal Humerus Fractures and Humeral Shaft Fractures: Theoretical Background with Technical Notes for Clinical Implementation

Diagnostics, 2022
Both nonoperative and operative treatment of proximal humerus fractures (PHF) and humeral shaft fractures can result in torsional side differences. Several measurement methods are available to determine torsional malalignment. While conventional X-ray or

Humeral shaft fractures

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 2018
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.

Fixation of Proximal Third Humeral Shaft Fractures in Older Patients

Geriatric Orthopaedic Surgery & Rehabilitation, 2023
Background Humeral shaft fractures occur frequently in older patients. The more proximal end of the shaft is prone to non-union when compared with more distal fractures.

A Shift From Non-operative Care to Surgical Fixation of Pediatric Humeral Shaft Fractures Even Though Their Severity Has Not Changed

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2020
Introduction: Humeral shaft fractures have traditionally been treated non-operatively due to their good union and low rate of functional impairment. In the recent years, upper extremity fractures and their operative treatment have increased in children ...

A comparison of patient-specific instrumentation to navigation for conducting humeral head osteotomies during shoulder arthroplasty

JSES International, 2021
Background: The humeral head osteotomy during shoulder arthroplasty influences humeral component height, version and possibly neck-shaft angle. These parameters all potentially influence outcomes of anatomic and reverse shoulder replacement to a variable

Humeral shaft fractures: national trends in management

Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2017
Background The incidence of humeral shaft fractures has been increasing over time. This represents a growing public health concern in a climate of cost containment. The purpose of this study is to analyze national trends in surgical management of humeral
