In an accident, the surgical neck of the humerus is more likely to fracture than the anatomical neck. The surgical neck is located just below the tubercles of the humerus and is a common site for fractures due to its relatively thinner structure and exposure to trauma. In contrast, the anatomical neck is less prone to fractures as it is surrounded by more robust bone and ligaments.
