TitleRight Humerus with Malaligned Healed Fracture
DescriptionHumerus, an adult right, showing a united fracture proximal to midshaft. The fracture has passed obliquely distally and laterally. The proximal fragment terminates by an apex which includes the deltoid tuberosity and projects laterally and has a slight lateral obliquity being overlapped on its medial surface for a distance of 70 mm. by the distal fragment. Fusion between the two has taken place by osseous union. The interposed mass of bone is smooth on its anterior and posterior surfaces and presents several irregular excavations with smooth margins. Distally the new bone forms part of the normal groove for the radial nerve.
