Abstract

At the Department of Paediatric Surgery in Bratislava are treated all the childhood accidents occurring in the town and its suburbs which have approximately 400,000 inhabitants of which 130,000 are children. In the past 46 years, the number of accidents has greatly increased in spite of a decrease in the number of children and while among the causes of death, accidents occupied the 4th place in 1933, now they are at the leading place, being responsible for almost half of all the deaths under 10 years of age.
