The Libyan civil conflict : selected case series of orthopaedic trauma managed in Malta in 2014 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Aim: The purpose of this series of cases was to analyse our management of orthopaedic trauma casualties in the Libyan civil war crisis in the European summer of 2014. We looked at both damage control orthopaedics and for case variety of war trauma at a

The course of the radial nerve in the distal humerus: A novel, anatomy based, radiographic assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Iatrogenic nerve injury during fracture surgery of the upper arm is a well-known complication. Prevention of this type of injuries would be of great value. The literature describes several methods to reduce this type of injury, but no

Open reduction and internal fixation of humeral midshaft fractures: anterior versus posterior plate fixation

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background Fractures of the humeral shaft represent 2–4% of all fractures. Fractures of the humerus have traditionally been approached posteriorly for open reduction and internal fixation. Reports of treating midshaft fractures with an open anterolateral

Combined Ipsilateral Humeral Shaft and Galeazzi Fractures Creating a Floating Elbow Variant

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, 2018
“Floating elbow” injuries of the arm traditionally represent a combination of humeral shaft and forearm fractures which require anatomic rigid open reduction and internal fixation of all fractures to allow for early range of motion exercises of the elbow.

Humeral Nail: Comparison of the Antegrade and Retrograde Application

open access: yesActa Clinica Croatica, 2016
Application of humeral nail in the treatment of humeral shaft fractures is a relatively novel method of fracture fixation. Its application at Clinical Department of Traumatology, Sestre milosrdnice University Hospital Center began in 2001.

Clinical Application of Nail‐Plate Fixation in the Treatment of Complex Proximal Third Humeral Fracture: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, 2023
Background Proximal humeral fractures with increasing incidence are common over the past decades. Among them, the complicated and displaced ones, especially combined with the proximal third humeral shaft fractures, need to be treated surgically.

Prognostic factors for radial nerve palsy associated with humeral shaft fracture

open access: yesFormosan Journal of Surgery, 2017
Background: Radial nerve palsy (RNP) associated with humeral shaft fracture is a common injury pattern in trauma patients. The management of RNP associated with humeral fractures in high-energy trauma is controversial and poses a challenge to surgeons ...

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

open access: yesBMC 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

Born this way: Does variation in perinatal limb bone morphology predict adult locomotor repertoire in primates?

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates show a high degree of locomotor diversity that engenders similar variance in limb bone cross‐sectional geometry and bending strength: leaping primates have stronger hindlimb bones whereas suspensory species have stronger forelimb bones.
