Abstract:
A case of traumatic separation of the proximal humeral epiphysis in a newborn is described. Three other cases of birth fractures of long bones have been taken care of in our hospital during 1980-89, when the frequency of birth fractures of long bones was 0.02%. The causes and diagnostic problems of these fractures are discussed.
