Five cases of fracture of the humerus, including two types were treated over a period of twelve months. Three of these were simple spiral fractures of the lower third of the shaft. The other two were fractures of the medial epicondyle of the humerus. Two of the spiral fractures were complicated by radial nerve paresis and delayed union, and were operatively treated. The remaining three fractures were treated conservatively. These fractures are the result of a number of factors giving rise to violent torsional forces or avulsion forces. All five patients recovered well with respective treatment.
在十二个月的时间里，共治疗了五例肱骨骨折，包括两种类型。其中三例为肱骨干下三分之一处的单纯螺旋骨折。另外两例为肱骨内上髁骨折。两例螺旋骨折并发桡神经麻痹和延迟愈合，接受了手术治疗。其余三例骨折采用保守治疗。这些骨折是由多种因素导致暴力扭转力或撕脱力引起的。所有五例患者经相应治疗后恢复良好。
