abstract="In a retrospective study of alpine skiing injuries which were seen at the Trauma Center of the University of Innsbruck in the years 1960-1991 a large change in &quot;typical skiing injuries&quot; was found. In the group of severe injuries, a large shift from the lower to the upper extremity (50.37%) has taken place. 3.93% of all patients were categorized as polytrauma patients in PTS groups II, IV, and 1.19% of all skiers died immediately after the injury. While 191 fractures and 118 capsular ligament injuries of the upper extremity were seen, 135 fractures and 229 severe capsular ligament lesions (mainly knee) of the lower extremity had to be treated.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
