Humeral Shaft Fracture Sustained During Arm Wrestling with Review of Factors Contributing to its Causation.

Introduction: Humeral shaft fractures are the most common injury sustained in arm wrestling, and its various biomechanical, anatomical, kinematic and electromyographic aspects have been studied and reported. We present a series of six cases of humeral shaft fractures in the arm wrestlers and a review of basic science studies to determine the factors contributing to their causation.

Materials And Methods: Six humeral shaft fractures associated with arm wrestling were treated between December 2018 and January 2020.
