Abstract
Fractures of the humeral shaft are commonly encountered by orthopaedic surgeons, accounting for approximately 3% of all fractures [20]. Treatment methods for these injuries continue to evolve as advances are made in both non-operative and operative management. It is generally agreed that most fractures of humeral shaft are treated best non-operatively, although there are indications for primary or secondary operative treatment in some situations [8,18,19]. The encouraging results that have been reported with recent advances in internal fixation techniques and instrumentation have led to an expansion of surgical indications for such fractures and a dilemma about the procedure of choice.
