Humerus fractures comprise 5% to 8% of all fractures. Nonunions are uncommon, but when they occur, they present a challenge to the orthopaedic surgeon and often are debilitating to patients. There are risk factors that may predispose patients to nonunion. Many methods of treating these nonunions have been described with varying degrees of success.

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1996
The treatment of humeral fractures in ruminants remains a challenge to the large animal surgeon. Often the recommendation is to euthanize the animal. This article reviews four different treatment techniques: stall confinement, intramedullary pinning, interlocking nails, and plate fixation.

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1992
A single or double bar, type I, unilateral external fixator can be used as primary or ancillary treatment for repair of many humeral fractures. Treatment of contaminated and comminuted fractures with external skeletal fixation provides rotational stability and axial alignment, access for wound management and bone grafting, and avoidance of vascular ...

Dr. W. A. Mnaymneh: A 56-year-old man was admitted to the Massachusetts General Hospital with the diagnosis of nonunion of the left humeral shaft. His present illness dated back 2 1/2 years prior to admission, at which time he fell downstairs and sustained a fracture of the midshaft of the left humerus. He was admitted to another hospital in which open

Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice, 2004
Humeral fractures are the least common long bone fracture in small animals. The low incidence of these fractures combined with the unique anatomy of the humerus makes repair of humeral fractures challenging. This chapter provides a review of humeral fracture management.

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1978
Two patients are described who had areas of rarefaction in the humeral heads that were biopsied and found to be normal bone. Almost all humeral heads have an area of localized rarefaction laterally, and when very pronounced this can be confused with a lytic lesion.

Clinical Anatomy, 2006
Fractures of the proximal humerus are common. A relatively large number of these injuries will heal with nonoperative treatment without major residual pain or functional loss. However, internal fixation or arthroplasty leads to a much better outcome for selected fractures.

Periprosthetic Fractures of the Humerus
Journal of Long-Term Effects of Medical Implants, 2009Classifications have been previously reported and biomechanical studies have been performed, but the management of humeral fractures between implants remains problematic. At the time of arthroplasty, planning of the optimum length of the prostheses is required, especially for patients being considered for a second arthroplasty in the ipsilateral elbow ...

Proximal humerus fractures are among the most common fractures associated with osteoporosis. With an aging population, incidence of these fractures will only increase. The proximal humerus not only forms the lateral portion of the shoulder articulation but also has significant associations with musculoskeletal and neurovascular structures. As a result,

Plasmacytoma of the proximal humerus
Clinical Imaging, 2005This is the case report of a 67-year-old man who developed a solitary lytic lesion of the proximal humerus. Through further studies that included MR imaging of the affected upper extremity and biopsy, a final diagnosis of plasmacytoma was given. We present the clinical, imaging, and histologic findings and review the general characteristics of this ...
