Abstract: Introduction Birth trauma is less with the Lower segment caesarean section delivery as compare to normal vaginal delivery. Post LSCS humerus fracture is a rare entity in neonatology [1]. But in some difficult extractions even with expert care, injury may be sustained by the newborn. Such injuries may get missed or remain unnoticed by an obstetrician and pediatrician in early neonatal period. Here we are presenting a case series of 2 cases in a period of one month where obstractician and neonatologist missed diaphysis humerus fracture in neonate induced by birth trauma during Caesarean section.
