Fractures of the Humeral Shaft
The incidence of humeral shaft fractures is relatively low compared to that of other long bone fractures. Generally, they do not represent major problems when treated by closed techniques. Internal fixation is rarely used even by the most aggressive surgeons and it has been long recognized that complications from surgery are likely to occur.
