Ball-thrower's fracture of the humerus.

Eric B Callaghan1, D Lee Bennett, Georges Y El-Khoury, Kenjirou Ohashi.   

Abstract

A relatively rare case of ball-thrower's fracture of the humerus is presented. Severe muscular action is an uncommon cause of humeral fractures but has been well documented in the orthopedic literature. To our knowledge, this fracture has not been described in the radiology literature, and awareness of this entity could preclude further unnecessary workup. The mechanism of injury and its typical radiographic appearance is described. Copyright 2004 ISS
