Intramedullary nail versus dynamic compression plate fixation in treating humeral shaft fractures: grading the evidence through a meta-analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
There is a debate regarding the choice of operative intervention in humeral shaft fractures that require surgical intervention. The choices for operative interventions include intramedullary nailing (IMN) and dynamic compression plate (DCP).

Influence of Timing on Surgical Outcomes for Acute Humeral Shaft Fractures

open access: yesAdvances in Orthopedics, 2021
Surgical treatment for humeral shaft fractures has been reported to yield satisfactory results; however, there may be complications, such as delayed bone union, nonunion, iatrogenic radial nerve injury, and infection.

Humeral shaft non-union after intramedullary nailing

open access: yes, 2017
The humerus shaft is one of the sites with the largest probability of developing pseudoarthrosis after fracture. We present the results of nine patients with atrophic pseudoarthrosis of humeral shaft treated with angular stability plate associated with ...

Delayed Presentation of a Humerus Shaft Fracture with Bridging Callus in the Late Neonatal Period - A Diagnostic Challenge: A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Emergency and Intensive Care Medicine
In infants, humeral fractures are commonly caused by birth injuries, child abuse, and direct or indirect trauma. After the clavicle, the humerus is the second most common site of birth-related long bone fracture in neonates and is frequently associated ...

Scaling and ecomorphology of lagomorph body shape and appendicular skeleton

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Body shape is one of the most prominent features of phenotypic variation. Yet, mammalian body shapes are poorly quantified and the underlying components contributing to its diversity and its relationship to other skeletal components are rarely tested.

Humeral shaft fractures: a practical guide to assessment and management

open access: yes, 2023
Fractures of the humeral shaft represent roughly 5% of all fractures. They occur in an approximate bimodal distribution, typically affecting young adults following trauma and older females after low energy falls in the presence of osteoporosis.

Local variation in age‐related cortical expansion within and between cross‐sections of distal human long bones

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cortical bone expansion is an age‐related process where, through endosteal resorption and periosteal apposition, cross‐sectional diameter increases while cortical thickness decreases in long bone diaphyses. Local variation has been observed in this process between cross‐sectional locations, but few studies have examined directional variation ...

Treatment of Middle Third Humeral Shaft Fractures with Anteromedial Plate Osteosynthesis through an Anterolateral Approach [PDF]

open access: yesMalaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2016
Background: Treatment of humeral shaft fractures has been a subject of debate for many decades. Even though a large majority of humeral shaft fractures can be treated by non operative methods, few conditions like open fractures, polytrauma, ipsilateral ...
