Surgical Challenges and Outcomes in Treating a Floating Upper Arm With Multiple Humerus Fractures and Radial Neck Fractures.

Complex humerus fractures associated with high-energy trauma present significant surgical challenges due to their impact on limb functionality and structural integrity. This case report details the treatment of a floating upper arm injury, characterized by multiple humerus fractures and a radial neck fracture, in a 50-year-old male following a vehicular accident. The patient exhibited fractures at the proximal, mid-shaft, and distal segments of the humerus, necessitating an integrated surgical approach to effectively manage these injuries. Dual surgical approaches and perpendicular plating were employed to address the multifaceted nature of the fractures. The patient achieved satisfactory functional recovery, regaining a significant range of motion, which highlights the efficacy of the chosen surgical strategy. This case contributes to the existing literature by illustrating the benefits of specific surgical techniques in managing complex humerus fractures, emphasizing the necessity for meticulous planning and execution to optimize patient outcomes.
