Abstract: Fractures of the humerus comprise approximately 5% to 8% of all extremity fractures, and shaft fractures account for approximately 3% of all long-bone fractures. Majority of humerus shaft fracture can be treated with conservative management but nowadays surgical indications in humerus fracture are increasingly being adopted. In this study 20 patients of humerus shaft fractures has been rated with 4.5 dynamic compression plate with posterior approach in SSG Hospital Baroda. After one year follow up 19 patients out of 20 having good functional result.
