Humeral shaft fracture associated with radial nerve palsy -a case report
Radial nerve palsy was induced by radial nerve compression, which was often caused by humerus bone fracture. This leads to pain, weakness, or loss of function mostly in the wrist, hand, and fingers. We reported a case of a 24-year-old male patient with complaints of swelling of the right-hand wrist joint and pain during extension and flexion while moving. He had a three-month history of mild displaced humeral shaft fracture from a traffic accident and an intramedullary Ender nailing was performed. He now has been admitted with swelling in his right wrist joint and pain while moving his hand. The case was diagnosed as Radial nerve palsy. Surgery was performed, the proximal and distal ends of the radial nerve were separated at the humeral bone's surface. The radial nerve stumps were enough long to be sutured. Our one-month follow-up shows no complications. The majority cases of radial nerve palsy will resolve within a few weeks after surgery, as our patient did, and the most prominent is patient education.
