Introduction: Humeral nonunion is a condition resulting from lack of healing at the fracture site often associated with alteration of the local biological potential. Case Presentation: A 38-year-old male patient, who had a fracture in the left humerus caused by a fall 8 months earlier was presented. He was treated non-operatively with Sarmiento brace.
Conclusions:The present study introduced a new minimally invasive bridge-plate technique for treatment of humeral shaft nonunion that avoids wide dissection, radial nerve isolation and periosteum stripping. It is a safe procedure, which led to bone healing and good results in a patient with atrophic humeral shaft nonunion.
