Abstract

Ski injuries during the period of growth are important as they are relatively frequent and may cause severe late complications (injuries of the epiphyseal cartilage). It is of utmost importance to develop safer skiing-equipment for children. Regarding therapeutic measures ski injuries in childhood and adolescence cause special problems, they must be treated with greatest care and exactness, if necessary surgically. In all cases of ski injuries in childhood and adolescence long term radiological checkup is necessary during the growing period in order to recognise and treat late complications as early as possible.
