Reliability, validity, responsiveness, and minimal important change of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand and Constant-Murley scores in patients with a humeral shaft fracture [PDF]

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 2017
Background: The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) and Constant-Murley scores are commonly used instruments. The DASH is patient-reported, and the Constant-Murley combines a clinician-reported and a patient-reported part. For patients with

Operative vs Nonoperative Management of Fractures of the Humeral Diaphysis: The Humeral Shaft Fracture Fixation Randomized Clinical Trial.

JAMA Surg
Importance Humeral shaft fractures are routinely managed nonoperatively, but this approach is potentially associated with higher nonunion rates and inferior functional outcomes when compared with operative fixation. Objective To assess whether there is

Case report of ipsilateral humeral shaft fracture and shoulder dislocation treated by closed reduction followed by intramedullary nailing [PDF]

Trauma Case Reports, 2021
Combined humeral shaft fracture and shoulder dislocation injury is rare. Consequently, there are no standard treatment protocols for this injury. We present a case of a 33-year-old man who slipped off a motorcycle and incurred a right humeral shaft ...

Final outcomes of radial nerve palsy associated with humeral shaft fracture and nonunion

Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2019
Background Little evidence regarding the extent of recovery of radial nerve lesions with associated humerus trauma exists. The aim of this study is to examine the incidence and resolution of types of radial nerve palsy (RNP) in operative and nonoperative

Surgical versus non-surgical treatment of humeral SHAFT fractures compared by a patient-reported outcome: the Scandinavian Humeral diAphyseal Fracture Trial (SHAFT)—a study protocol for a pragmatic randomized controlled trial

Trials, 2022
Background The outcome of non-surgical treatment is generally good, but the treatment course can be long and painful with approximately a quarter of the patients acquiring a nonunion.

Fractures of the Humeral Shaft with Primary Radial Nerve Palsy: Do Injury Mechanism, Fracture Type, or Treatment Influence Nerve Recovery?

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2019
Adult humeral shaft fractures are associated with primary radial nerve palsy in up to 18% of cases. The purpose of this study was to assess the influence of injury mechanism, fracture type, and treatment on nerve recovery in patients with humeral shaft ...

Humeral shaft fractures [PDF]

Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2012
Management of humeral shaft fractures has historically been largely conservative. A significant body of literature, dating back to the 1970s, has shown that functional bracing may achieve greater than 90 % union rates and acceptable functional outcomes.
