Abstract :
Fracture of the proximal humerus associated with vascular injury has rarely been reported in children, and only
two cases have been reported in the literature. In adults this combination has been reported more frequently.
We present the case of a 14 year old boy with proximal humeral epiphyseal separation and axillary artery injury.
