| Core Tip |
We report a case of a patient who was eventually diagnosed with multiple myeloma (MM). After treatment of the pathological fracture with intramedullary (IM) nailing and chemotherapy in the Hematology Department, the humeral fracture displayed good union during the 40-mo follow-up, with complete healing of the fracture, and the clinical outcome was satisfactory. This case report and review of the literature demonstrates early surgery should be performed for the fracture of the proximal humerus caused by MM. IM nailing can be used without removal of tumors. Bone cement augmentation for bone defects and local adjuvant therapy can also be employed. |
