Background This meta-analysis aimed to compare conservative vs. operative treatment for
humeral shaft fractures in terms of the nonunion rate, reintervention rate, permanent radial …

Background There is no consensus on the optimal operative technique for humeral shaft
fractures. This meta-analysis aims to compare minimal-invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) …

Importance Humeral shaft fractures traditionally have been treated nonsurgically, but there
has been a steady increase in the rate of surgery over the past 2 decades without high …

Introduction Humeral shaft fractures can be treated non-operatively or operatively. The
optimal management is subject to debate. The aim was to compare non-operative and …

Methods: An updated systematic review of the published literature was undertaken. An

fractures. This meta-analysis aims to compare minimal-invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) …

The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess risk for iatrogenic radial
