Fractures are one of the main chapters of traumatology: they account for 15 to 20% of all injuries to the human body. Of this number, more than 50% are fractures of the upper limb, and the frequency of their localization in this area is distributed approximately as follows: the collarbone falls from 30 to 32%; on the shoulder 15%; on the forearm 34-35%; on the wrist 3-6% and, finally, on the hand 15-16%.
