ABSTRACT

One of the main pillars of the humerus dyaphisial fracture conservative treatment has been the usage of the hanging plaster cast as an immobilization method, so we decided to use that treatment in a patient after diagnosing that condition. We evaluated the efficacy of the used method periodically following the clinical and 532 imaging evolution of the lesion, obtaining the consolidation of the fracture without any complication, result agree with the international literature that refers the importance and positive outcomes of the used method. Taking into account its suitability, effectiveness, and usefulness we considered it opportune to present this experience with the objective of promoting the practical extension of the humerus dyaphisial fracture conservative treatment.
