However, with open fractures of the proximal part of the humerus, nonoperative treatment typically is not indicated, and no such cases previously have been reported in the literature. We describe a 10-year-old boy with a completely displaced type-I open fracture of the proximal part of the humerus who was treated definitively in the emergency department with local irrigation and debridement, antibiotics, and the application of a hanging arm cast. One year later, he had complete radiographic union, no infectious sequelae, and no functional impairment of the shoulder.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Nonoperative treatment of a pediatric type-I open fracture of the proximal part of the humerus can be successful.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.2106\/jbjs.cc.16.00053","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,12,2]],"date-time":"2016-12-02T06:25:00Z","timestamp":1480659900000},"page":"e94","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Nonoperative Treatment of a Completely Displaced Pediatric Type-I Open Fracture of the Proximal Part of the Humerus"],"prefix":"10.2106","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"Jaysson T.","family":"Brooks","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, The Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R.
