[Spiral fracture of the humerus during arm wrestling].
The authors present the case of a body-builder who sustained a spiral fracture of the humerus during arm wrestling (Indian wrestling). The cause of the fracture and the underlying mechanism are discussed and it is concluded that it appears appropriate to warn body-builders and weight-lifters against arm wrestling.
