[Complications of an incorrectly treated diaphyseal fracture of the humerus and corrective surgery leading to healing].
Author describes a case of a fracture in the upper third of the humerus in which a pseudoarthrosis developed in consequence of the insufficient fixation. After the second operation an osteosynthesis with a "spoon"-plate was performed together with transplantation of autologous cancellous bone. The lesson drawn from this case is analysed after healing.
