title: [Brain injuries in skiers].
abstract: During the last skiing season (November 1981 to March 1982), 33 patients were treated for craniocerebral injuries caused by skiing accidents. Based on the classification made by Tönnis und Loew, 11 patients had grade I, 11 patients grade II and 11 patients grade III (including 3 open craniocerebral injuries). Four patients underwent operation for intracranial hematoma. Out of 33 patients 79% recovered completely. One patient has a permanent neurologic defect, two patients have an apallic syndrome and four died.
