Abstract:
Purpose: The analysis of ten unusual eye injuries, and the discussion of appropriate preventive measures. Case outline: Ten patients hospitalized at the Clinic of Eye Diseases, Clinical Center of Serbia, Belgrade, in the period from January 2000. to December 2009. were presented. Following data were taken in account: sex and age of the patient, injured eye, the mechanism of injury, type of the injury, applied treatment and final visual acuity. The circumstances of the eye injuring of ten patients were described. The eye injuries in all cases occurred in a bizarre way and they were severe enough to require hospital admission. The surgery was necessary in seven patients. Three injured eyes resulted in blindness, and two additional had subnormal vision. Conclusion: In three quarters of discussed cases injuries can be avoided. It is necessary to implement protective measures constantly and consistently and to think about the possible consequences of certain activities. Particular attention should be paid on safety of children. The iatrogenic injuries require special consideration.

Abstract:
Data on traumatization of sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka spawners in the Meynypil’gyn lake-river system by lampreys are presented on results of observations in 1998– 2018. Features and localization of injuries are described comparing the injuries of males and females and biological parameters of fish with and without the injuries. In the Meynypil’gyn lake-river system, relative to other areas of Russian Far East, the portion of fish with injuries from lampreys is medium for sockeye salmon, and low for pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha and charr Salvеlinus malma. Judging by size of the wounds, the injuries were caused mostly by arctic lamprey Entosphenus tridentatus. Generally, about 68 % of sockeye spawners were attacked by lampreys during their pre-spawning migrations just before entering the fresh waters, but the percentage (P) depends on length (L) of fish: P = 1.2026 . L + 1.2192 (R2 = 0.879). So, the portion of injured fish increased from 2.7 % for the sockeye producers with length < 500 mm to 31.2 % for those with length 671–680 mm. Mean size and weight of the male and female sockeye spawners with traces of lampreys were statistically significantly higher than these parameters for the fish without injuries. The males injured by lampreys were larger than the males without injures in 18 mm and 295 g, the females — in 5 mm and 80 g, on average. Sockeye females had weaker and less numerous damages, so their portion among the fish with 1 injury was 45.4 %, among the fish with 2 injuries — 42.9 %, among the fish with 3 or more injures — 37.0 %. Besides, mean size of the injured sockeye increased with a number of injures and for the groups with 1, 2, and 3 or more injures it was for females: 604, 608, and 613 mm, for males: 655, 667, and 674 mm, respectively. Such dependencies of alive fish traumatization on their size are caused by higher mortality of small fish after lampreys attacks. There is concluded that arctic lamprey affects significantly on sexual and size composition of sockeye spawners in the Meynypil’gyn lake-river system providing selection of fish with larger size and weight, in particular males.

Abstract:
Aim. To provide a retrospective analysis of our results and experience in primary surgical treatment of subjects with war liver injuries. Methods. From July 1991 to December 1999, 204 subjects with war liver injuries were treated. A total of 82.8% of the injured were with the liver injuries combined with the injuries of other organs. In 93.7%, the injuries were caused by fragments of explosive devices or bullets of various calibers. In 140 (68.6%) of the injured there were minor lesions (grade I to II), treated with simple repair or drainage. There were complex injuries of the liver (grade III-V) in 64 (31.4%) of the injured. Those injuries required complex repair (hepatorrhaphy, hepatotomy, resection debridement, resection, packing alone). The technique of perihepatic packing and planned reoperation had a crucial and life-saving role when severe bleeding was present. Routine peritoneal drainage was applied in all of the injured. Primary management of 74.0% of the injured was performed in war hospitals. Results. After primary treatment, 72 (35.3%) of the injured were with postoperative complications. Reoperation was done in 66 injured. Total mortality rate in 204 injured was 18.1%. All the deceased had significant combined injuries. Mortality rates due to the liver injury of the grade III, IV and V were 16.6%, 70.0% and 83.3%, respectively. Conclusion. Complex liver injuries caused very high mortality rate and the management of the injured was delicate under war circumstances (if the injured reached the hospital alive). Our experience under war circumstances and with war surgeons of limited knowledge of the liver surgery and war surgery, confirmed that it was necessary to apply compressive abdominal packing alone or in combination with other techniques for hemostasis in the treatment of liver injuries grade III-V, resuscitation and rapid transportation to specialized hospitals.

Abstract:
Patient falls cause economic loss in hospitals, as well as patient injuries. This study aimed to calculate the additional hospital cost and length of stay (LOS) due to fall-related serious injuries and to identify the determining factors for both outcomes. A matched case-control design was used in the study. It was conducted with a case group of 39 patients and a control group of 39 patients in 28 hospitals in İzmir, Turkey. The additional hospital cost and LOS due to fall-related serious injuries were calculated to be US$3,302.60 and 14.61 days, respectively. Precautionary initiatives for the injurious falls can prevent patients from getting injured and avoid increases in cost and LOS due to these injuries.

Abstract:
Purpose: The research aimed to assess the risk of incidental and recurrent injuries in young athletes according to the training experience, training weekly volume, and morphological features.Methods: One hundred and twenty-five male athletes were included in the study (22 American football players, 30 football players, 49 handball players, and 24 volleyball players). Injures data were collected with the questionnaire.Results: Most of the young players were injured. The basic risk factors of incidental injuries are the length of the training experience. In the case of recurrent injuries, it is also a training internship and a weekly training volume. The risk of incidental injury increases with 30% every year. In the case of recurrent injuries, the risks associated with each year of training by 28%, and 26% with an increase in training volume. The morphological did not increase injury risk.Conclusion: With the training experience, training volume, the risk of sports injury increases. Long-term activities are required in the training process with proper training loads, methods of preventing sports injuries, and regeneration techniques for the protection of young athletes from injuries.

Abstract:
In recent years, there has been a dynamic increase in injuries associated with winter slippery conditions on the streets of settlements. Injures directly affect the quality of life and costs of specific people, and indirectly – the economic performance of various organizations and foundations to which the injured is related. The costs and loss of profit of organizations, municipalities and the state, due to the winter injuries of the population are analyzed. To this end, an analysis of foreign and Russian studies and various aspects of injuries associated with a controlled cause, icing has been carried out. Developed tools and methods of calculation. The results of the paper indicate that injuries derived from winter slipperiness can has a substantial negative effect on a region’s economy by decreasing it GDP by more than 0.1%. In conclusion the authors stress the importance of enhancing the current statistical monitoring system in Russia to help prevent winter related injuries and implement efficient methodsof preventing road icing to minimize the negative economic impact.

Abstract:
In the past, injuries to the adrenal glands due to blunt trauma were considered rare, and were reported to be associated with high Injury Severity Scores (ISSs) and high mortality. Recent reports have reported a much high incidence associated with lower ISS and lower mortality. The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence of adrenal gland injuries due to blunt trauma in a large state trauma registry and determine whether these injuries are associated with a higher ISS and increased risk for mortality. A retrospective review was performed on the New York State Trauma Registry comparing blunt injured adults with adrenal injuries to those who did not. Concurrent organ injuries, ISS, and inhospital mortality were compared. Three hundred thirty-nine patients with adrenal gland injuries were identified. Concurrent liver and kidney injuries were more prevalent in the adrenal injured group, and concurrent injuries to the small and large intestine and spleen were more prevalent in the nonadrenal injured group. There was no difference in ISS or mortality between the adrenal injured and nonadrenal injured populations. The results of this study are consistent with recent smaller studies which identified incidence rates which were higher than previously reported and that ISS and mortality risk were unchanged by the presence of blunt adrenal gland injuries. Adrenal gland injuries due to blunt trauma are not uncommon, with an incidence rate of 0.61 per cent. Adrenal gland injuries are not associated with higher ISS or an increased risk of mortality.

Abstract:
Background and Objective. Scald burns are a major cause of pediatric burn injuries. Instant soups have been identified as one source of these injuries. This study aims to quantify and characterize these injuries in pediatric patients. Methods. Ten-year query of National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS) database identified instant soup- and noodle-related scald burns in children aged 4 to 12 years. Data included patient demographics, injured body part, case narratives, and emergency department disposition. Results. A total of 4518 cases were identified, yielding an estimate of 9521 cases/year in the United States. Younger children were affected more than the older. Trunk was the most commonly burned body area. Approximately 10% of injuries required admission or transfer for further care. Conclusion. Instant soup and noodle products are a common cause of pediatric scald burns, potentially injuring 25 children per day in the United States and leading to high rates of health care utilization.

Abstract:
Iatrogenic vascular injuries (IVIs) and injuries associated with vascular surgery can cause severe morbidity and death. The aims of this thesis were to study those injuries in the Swedish vascular registry (Swedvasc), the Swedish medical injury insurance where insurance claims are registered, the Population and Cause of death registries, and in patient records, in order to explore preventive strategies. Among 87 IVIs during varicose vein surgery 43 were venous, mostly causing bleeding in the groin. Among 44 arterial injuries, only 1/3 were detected intraoperatively. Accidental arterial stripping predominated, with poor outcome. Four patients died, all after venous injuries. IVIs increased over time, and constitute more than half of the vascular injuries registered in the Swedvasc. Lethal outcome was more common (4.9%) among patients suffering IVIs than among non-iatrogenic vascular injuries (2.5%). Risk factors for death were age, diabetes, renal insufficiency and obstructive lung-disease. Fifty-two patients died within 30 days after IVI. The most common lethal IVIs were puncture during endovascular procedures (n=24, 46%), penetrating trauma during open surgery (11) and occlusion after compression (6). Symptoms were peripheral ischemia (n=19), external bleeding (14), and hypovolemic chock without external bleeding (10). Most died within two weeks (n=36, 69%). After >2 weeks the IVI as a cause of death was uncertain. Among 193 insurance claims after vascular surgery during 2002-2007, nerve injuries (91) and wound infections (22) dominated. Most patients suffered permanent injuries, three died. Patients with insurance claims were correctly registered in the Swedvasc in 82%. In 32 cases of popliteal artery injury during knee arthroplasty symptoms were bleeding (n=14), ischaemia (n=7) and false aneurysm formation (n=11). Only twelve injuries (38%) were detected intraoperatively. Patency at 30 days was 97%, but only seven (22%) patients had complete recovery. Six of those had intraoperative diagnosis of popliteal injury and immediate vascular repair. In conclusion, registration of IVIs is increasing and outcome is often negatively affected by diagnostic and therapeutic delay. Not all fatalities after IVIs are attributable to the injury itself. The most common causes of insurance claims after vascular surgery were nerve injuries, and 82% were correctly registered in Swedvasc.

Abstract:
Background The incidence of traumatic brain injuries (TBI) is about 500 cases per 100,000 inhabitants per year, a majority of which are mild TBI (MTBI). The incidence of whiplash injuries is about 300/100,000/year. There are several similarities between MTBI and whiplash injuries with regard to the causes of injury (traffic crashes and falls), the demographic profile of the injured (mostly young persons), and the type of symptoms exhibited by some of the injured (for example head/neck pain, fatigue, irritability, impaired cognitive functioning, and depression).  Main aim To investigate the epidemiology and long-term consequences in terms of symptoms, disability, and life satisfaction in cases of TBI and whiplash injuries in a well-defined population. Material and methods Data on frequencies and characteristics of TBI and whiplash injuries were extracted from the injury database at the emergency department (ED) of Umeå University Hospital (UUH). The results were presented as descriptive epidemiology. The 18-65 year-old persons who sustained an MTBI or whiplash injury in 2001, were provided a questionnaire three and five years after injury respectively, in which questions were asked about: Symptoms; Rivermead Post Concussion Symptoms Questionnaire (RPQ) Disability; Rivermead Head Injury Follow Up Questionnaire (RHFUQ) Life satisfaction; LiSat-11 A local reference population was used for comparison of the RPQ. A national cohort was used as reference for LiSat-11. Data on sick leave for the cases of whiplash injuries were analysed to calculate the cost to society for loss of productivity. Results In 2001, the incidence of TBI was 354/100,000/year. The mean age was 23 and 55% were men. Ninety-seven percent of the injuries were classified as mild (Glasgow coma scale 13-15). The main causes were falls (55%) and traffic related injury events (30%). In 8% of the cases (17% of the elderly persons) an intracranial bleeding was detected by using CT. The 3-year follow-up of the MTBI patients showed that women had more symptoms and disability (~50%) than men (~30%). Both women and men had more symptoms and lower life satisfaction compared with the reference population. The incidence of traffic-related whiplash injuries in adults was 235/100,000/year and the annual incidences were relatively stable during 2000-2009. Combining the incidences with national insurance data showed that the proportion of insurance claims decreased during the period. When looking at whiplash trauma following all causes of injury in 2001, traffic crashes caused 61% of the injuries and falls caused 14%. Neck fractures occurred in 3% of the cases. Five years after whiplash injury, the injured persons had more symptoms and lower life satisfaction than the references. Sick leave ≥15 days was granted in 14% of the cases of whiplash injuries. The median number of sick days was 298 and the cost of loss of productivity during the follow-up was 5.6 million USD. The frequencies of symptoms were relatively alike when comparing subjects with whiplash injuries to subjects with MTBI. Conclusion TBI and whiplash injuries are common, especially among young people, and the injuries render long-term symptoms, disability, and impaired life satisfaction in up to 50% of the cases. Symptoms exhibited are alike between the two types of injuries. The cost to society for loss of productivity is high, and there is a need for enhanced preventive measures aiming at reducing traffic-related injuries, sports injuries, alcohol-related injuries, and falls. Physical, mental, and social factors are important and should be addressed when examining and treating patients with persisting symptoms following TBI and whiplash injuries.
Bakgrund Skallskador utgör ett stort folkhälsoproblem, särskilt eftersom många som skadas är unga. Skallskador är också, parallellt med självmord, den vanligaste dödsorsaken hos ungdomar och unga vuxna. De flesta av skadorna klassas som ”lätta” i akutskedet men trots det så kommer en del av patienterna att drabbas av kvarstående besvär, t ex smärta, koncentrationssvårigheter, depression och nedsatt livstillfredsställelse. Whiplashskador är nästan lika vanligt förekommande som skallskador och uppkommer framförallt i trafikolyckor. Även fall- och sportskador orsakar emellertid ett betydande antal whiplashskador. I normalfallet avtar de akuta symptomen inom några veckor men en del av patienterna anger att de får kvarstående besvär. Ett flertal skademekanismer i nackens vävnader är kända men tyvärr svåra att verifiera eller utesluta. Huvudsyfte Att undersöka förekomsten av skallskador och whiplashskador i en väldefinierad population samt beskriva restsymptom, funktions-nedsättningar och livstillfredsställelse hos de drabbade tre till fem år efter skadan. Material och metod Förekomsten av skadorna (Studie I, III och IV) Studierna baseras på skadedatabasen vid Norrlands Universitetssjukhus i Umeå (NUS). I skadedatabasen registreras alla patienter som söker till akutmottagningen efter en skadehändelse, ca 10 000 fall per år. När patienterna anmäler sig i receptionen tilldelas de en skadejournal som de själva fyller i i väntan på att bli undersökta. När patienter inkommer med svårare skador får anhöriga i möjligaste mån fylla i journalen. Primärvårdens jour har under åren för studiens genomförande varit belägen på akutmottagningen under kvällar, nätter och helger vilket inneburit att de få skadefall som konsekvent missats har varit lättare skador som behandlats dagtid på vårdcentralerna i upptagningsområdet.   Långtidsuppföljning (Studie II, III och V) En uppföljande enkätundersökning bestående av ett antal validerade frågeformulär skickades till alla skall- och whiplashskadade patienter i arbetsför ålder tre respektive fem år efter skadehändelsen. De frågeformulär som analyserades var: För symptom: Rivermead Post Concussion Symptoms Questionnaire (RPQ) För funktionsnedsättning: Rivermead Head Injury Follow Up Questionnaire (RHFUQ) För livstillfredsställelse: Life Satisfaction-11 (LiSat-11) För smärta (hos de whiplashskadade): Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)  Resultaten från RPQ och LiSat-11 jämfördes med sedan tidigare tillgängligt material från åldersmatchade referenspopulationer. När det gäller de whiplashskadade genomfördes en femårsuppföljning avseende sjukskrivning. Data från Försäkringskassan analyserades och samhällskostnaden för produktionsbortfall beräknades baserat på den genomsnittliga kostnaden för en årsarbetare. Resultat Förekomsten av skallskador vid NUS under 2001 var 354 skadade per 100 000 invånare. Medelåldern på de skadade var 23 år och 55% var män. Andelen lätta skallskador var 97%. Fallolyckor orsakade flest skador (55%) och trafikolyckor var näst vanligast (30%). Minst 17% av patienterna (ofta medelålders personer) var alkoholpåverkade. Hos 8% av patienterna (17% av personer över 65 år) upptäcktes blödningar i hjärnan. I uppföljningen efter tre år noterades att de skallskadade patienterna i arbetsför ålder hade högre symptomfrekvens och lägre livstillfredsställelse än referenspopulationerna. Kvinnorna rapporterade högre förekomst av symptom och funktionsnedsättning än männen. Funktionsnedsättning av varierande grad samt så kallat postkommotionellt syndrom (med förekomst av minst tre specificerade symptom) fanns hos ca 50% av kvinnorna och hos ca 30% av männen. Medelförekomsten av whiplashskador till följd av trafikolyckor var under 2000-2009 235 fall per 100 000 invånare och år. Sammantaget var förekomsten relativt stabil under perioden; en ökning med 1% per år noterades. När siffrorna matchades mot data från Försäkringsförbundet noterades en minskning av andelen försäkringsärenden under perioden. 2001 års incidens av akuta whiplashskador efter alla typer av skadehändelser var 383 skadade per 100 000 invånare. Könsfördelningen var 56% män / 44% kvinnor och medelåldern var 32 år. Trafikolyckor orsakade 61% av whiplashskadorna medan fallolyckor stod för 14%. Frakturer i nacken var ovanliga och hittades hos 3% av patienterna. I femårsuppföljningen av whiplashpatienter i arbetsför ålder noterades att de hade högre frekvens (ca 50%) av symptom samt lägre livstillfredsställelse än referenspopulationerna. Funktionsnedsättning av varierande grad fanns hos ca 50% av patienterna. Kvinnorna skattade sin smärta högre än männen men i övrigt fanns ingen könsskillnad beträffande förekomsten av symptom, funktionsnedsättning och livstillfredsställelse. Vid jämförelse mellan whiplashskadade och skallskadade noterades att förekomsten av symptom med några få undantag inte skilde sig åt mellan grupperna. Fjorton procent av de whiplashskadade blev sjukskrivna i mer än 14 dagar. Sjukskrivningens medianlängd var 298 dagar och i 3% av fallen fortskred sjukskrivningen under hela 5-årsperioden. Trafikskadade sjukskrevs oftare än fallskadade och noterbart är också att nackfrakturer ej resulterade i längre sjukskrivningar än mjukdelsskador. Samhällskostnaden för produktionsbortfall var i snitt ca 600 000 kr per sjukskrivning. Konklusion Avhandlingen bidrar med nya grunddata som ytterligare förstärker bilden av att skallskador och whiplashskador är vanliga och att det framförallt är unga personer som drabbas. Grad och typ av kvarstående besvär är likartade efter båda skadetyper. Samhällskostnaden för skadorna är hög och lämpliga områden för skadepreventivt arbete tycks vara fallskadeprevention, trafikskadeprevention, skadeprevention inom hästsport, fotboll och ishockey samt prevention av alkoholrelaterade skador. Både fysiska, psykologiska och sociala faktorer inverkar på läkningsförloppet och symptombilden efter skadorna och det är viktigt att utvärdera och behandla patienterna med utgångspunkt från detta.

Abstract:
The aim of the study was to analyse mortality and morbidity from external causes among Lithuanian children and adolescents. Methods. Information on deaths from major external causes during the period of 1988-2000 for Lithuanian children and adolescents aged 0-19 was obtained from the Department of Statistics. Information on the number of admissions to health care institutions due to injuries for children aged 0-14 years was gathered from Lithuanian Health Information Center. International comparisons were performed using data from the WHO/Europe Health for All Database. Mortality rates were age-standardized using the European standard, and analysed by sex, age, and place of residence. Years of life lost due to external causes were calculated. Mortality and morbidity trends were explored using the regression analysis. Results. External causes were the most common causes of death among Lithuanian children and adolescents aged up to 19 years, accounting for 36.5% of overall mortality during the period of 1988-2000. Children or adolescents lost approximately 330,000 (23.7 per 1,000 population) years of life due to external causes in 1988-2000, or every dead child or adolescent lost, on the average, close to 60 years of life. Age-standardized mortality from external causes of Lithuanian children and adolescents was 40.1 per 100 000 population in 1988-2000. Considerable inequalities in mortality by sex, age, and place of residence were disclosed, pointing out boys, children under one year of age, adolescents aged 15-19 years, and residents of rural areas as the most vulnerable groups. Throughout the study period mortality from external causes was decreasing, while the number of admissions to health care institutions and hospital discharges due to injuries was increasing. Despite a recent decline, mortality from external causes among children and adolescents remains at extremely high level in Lithuania as compared to other countries of Europe. Conclusions. High mortality rates due to external causes, and an increasing number of non-fatal injuries among Lithuanian children and adolescents demonstrate the great need for a definite, well-coordinated, and competent injury prevention strategy.

Abstract:
One of the most common knee injuries is an anterior cruciate ligament sprain or tear.Athletes who participate in high demand sports like soccer, football, and basketball are more likely to injure their anterior cruciate ligaments.If you have injured your anterior cruciate ligament, you may require surgery to regain full function of your knee. This will depend on several factors, such as the severity of your injury and your activity level.

Abstract:
Informed by narrative inquiry and storywork, this qualitative research analyzes the extent to which non-Indigenous frontline workers are engaging with and responding to colonial history. The research aimed to gather and reflect on stories non-Indigenous service providers tell about their practice with Indigenous substance users. Within such stories, do practitioners speak of their role, if any, with regard to historically-determined inequities? Do they engage in hopeful exchanges? Five non-Indigenous practitioners working with Indigenous service users with substance use issues participated in the research. The analysis of the five in-depth interviews was informed by the author’s own mental health and addictions education and practice training, relevant Indigenous and mainstream research, literature, teachings and stories. This thesis contributes to understanding the role of practitioners in response to problematic substance use and social injuries in Canada. Findings suggests that while some social workers are keenly aware of colonial history, ongoing colonial violence and their relevance to work with Indigenous service users, they struggle with how to operationalize that knowledge. In terms of implications for social work, findings highlight ways in which the work of participants is ‘responsive to history,’ responsive to colonial complicity, and suggest considerations and concerns that require further attention. The study contributes to a fuller understanding of the constituents of decolonizing practice—history, cultural humility, etc.—as viewed by non-Indigenous practitioners.

Abstract:
AbstractTraumatic dental injuries account for majority of maxillofacial injuries affecting soft tissues as well as maxillofacial bones. History of immediate local measures employed to reduce the severity of injury helps in eliciting information regarding the original condition of the injured area. Time elapsed post trauma plays a major role in determining outcome of the intervention. Goal of the treatment is directed towards achieving the pre-traumatic occlusion and intra arch contour.

Abstract:
Participation in sports, recreation, and exercise is progressively gaining more popularity in American culture and, along with it, the risk of acute and chronic injuries. People who injure a knee before the age of 22 have a greater than 3-fold risk of developing osteoarthritis (OA) in the injured joint by their mid 50s 5. Specifically, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and meniscal injuries are strongly associated with the development of OA 4, a common and widespread musculoskeletal disease 1.

Abstract:
The advent of airbag technology has helped to reduce the injuries to belted occupants in motor vehicles during moderate to severe frontal and near frontal crashes [1–3]. Airbags have been in use since the early 1970s. As of July 2001, airbags have saved 7224 lives including 6066 drivers and 1158 front right passengers. However, the airbag deployments at low crash severity showed higher injury probability of occupants. The majority of airbag fatalities are associated with low speed impacts with deployments. As of July 2001, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has reported 144 fatalities and serious life threatening injuries to children due to passenger airbags [4]. It is also reported that four children died and one child sustained life-threatening injury due to a driver side airbag. The publication from Transport Canada noted that the airbags increase the overall risk of injury of children under the age of 10 by approximately 21% [5]. Although the airbags have saved many lives, they are also responsible for fatalities and serious injuries during low speed severity collision. The present study reports pediatric airbag injuries sustained during low speed crashes.

Abstract:
Lower extremity injuries are a frequent outcome of automobile accidents (Fildes et al., 1997). These injuries can be a cause of permanent disability and impairment (States, 1986). Luchter and Walz (1995) found that the lower extremity was the most frequently injured body region, comprising 27.8% of the injuries in the 1993 National Accident Sampling System (NASS) database. Patella and femur fractures are the most frequent knee injuries.
