A : No drugs allergyM : No current medicationP : No underlying diseaseL : 18.30 21/10/2559E : RoadSecondary survey : History
Head & maxillofacial : swelling at both cheek, mild tender at both zygomatic archCervical spine and Neck : No wound at neck , tender along C-spineChest : CCT negative, equal breath sound, trachea in midlineAbdomen&pelvis : Abrasion wound at RUQ, soft, mild tender at RUQ, PCT negative
Secondary survey : Complete physical exam
Perineum : no wound, no ecchymosis, no hematoma, no urethral bloodPR : Good sphincter tone , no bloodNeurologic : E4V5M6, pupil 3 mm RTLBE
Secondary survey : Complete physical exam
Ortho examinationDeformities both middle arm, swelling, no open woundMotor : cant extensor both wrists, cant extensor all fingerSensory : decrease pinprick sensation at dorsal surface of thumb and index bothVascular : full radial pulses both
Secondary survey : Complete physical exam

Treatment Surgery : ORIF with P&S both humerus

Associated injury Radial nerve injury Brachial artery injury Ulnar & medial nerve injury (less commom)***Neurovascular exam is critical***

Fracture line
classificationsTransverseObliqueSpiralSegmentWedge
classificationsAO
Holstein-Lewis fracture A spiral fracture of the distal one-third of the humeral shaft 22% incidence associated with neuropraxia of the radial nerve
TreatmentGoal : union with acceptable alignment
Operative treatment
Indication for surgeryAbsoluteRelative
Coaptation splint (U slab) Criteria for acceptable alignment include: < 20 anterior angulation< 30 varus/valgus angulation< 3 cm shortening Outcomes90% union rate increased risk with proximal third oblique or spiral fracture varus angulation is common but rarely has functional or cosmetic sequelae
Radial nerve palsyIncidence 8-15% of closed fractures incidence distal one-third fractures Neuropraxia most common injury in closed fractures and neurotomesis in open fractures 85-90% of improve with observation over 3 months Spontaneous recovery found at an average of 7 weeks, with full recovery at an average of 6 months
TreatmentSurgical explorationIndications Open fracture with radial nerve palsy (likely neurotomesis injury to the radial nerve) Closed fracture that fails to improve over ~ 3-6 months Fibrillations (denervation) seen at 3-4 months on EMG
Radial nerve palsy after reduction is due to nerve entrapment Refer
