    AbstractThree patients with fresh displaced fractures of the capitulum humeri were treated by the fibrin sealant method, without additional internal fixation. At follow-up, between 1 1/2 and 4 1/2 years after surgery, clinical results were very good. Fibrin sealant has many advantages over traditional osteosynthesis techniques and is therefore recommended as an effective method for treating such serious but uncommon fractures of the elbow joint.
