Abstract

Humeral fractures are relatively uncommon, with spiral patterns typically associated with torsional forces. Arm wrestling is an activity that can lead to humeral shaft fractures. This report presents the case of a 25-year-old male who sustained a spiral fracture of the right humerus during an arm-wrestling match. Radiographic evaluation confirmed the diagnosis, and the injury was successfully managed with closed reduction followed by immobilization using a posterior long arm splint. This case underscores the need to consider atypical mechanisms of injury, such as arm wrestling, when evaluating humeral fractures. Additionally, it supports the efficacy of conservative, non-operative management in young, otherwise healthy patients with isolated humeral fractures.
