Background: Humeral shaft fractures account for approximately 3 % of all fractures and exhibit a bimodal age distribution. Dynamic compression plating (DCP) and locked compression plating (LCP) are two principal methods for surgical fixation.

Virtual prototyping of a new intramedullary nail for tibial fractures [PDF]
In this work a new distal interlocking system has been developed which is easy to use, allows a reduction of the operating time and consequently the exposure to radiations both for surgeon and patient. The main goal of this study has been the design of a

Refixation stability in shoulder hemiarthroplasty in case of four-part proximal humeral fracture [PDF]
Primary stability of refixated fractures in case of shoulder hemiarthroplasty is a prerequisite to restore physiological glenohumeral joint function. Clinical observations often show a secondary dislocation and subsequent resorption of the bony anchor ...

latrogenic fracture of humerus – complication of a diagnostic error in a shoulder dislocation: a case report [PDF]
Shoulder dislocation is the commonest dislocation presenting to the emergency department, anterior being more common than posterior. The latter being less common has a tendency of being missed; this is supported by many cases in the literature.

Iatrogenic brachial artery injury during anterolateral plating of humeral shaft fracture
【Abstract】There are several well defined indica- tions for surgical management of humeral shaft fractures. Operative procedures on the humerus are associated with their own complications. Iatrogenic brachial artery injury as a complication of humeral
