Alpine skiing injuries have significantly shifted from the lower to the upper extremity over three decades. This study analyzes trends in severe skiing trauma and associated outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Sports Medicine
  • Trauma Surgery

Context:

  • Retrospective analysis of alpine skiing injuries at the University of Innsbruck Trauma Center (1960-1991).
  • Examined changes in injury patterns over a 30-year period.
  • Focus on severe injuries and their epidemiological trends.

Purpose:

  • To identify and analyze the changing patterns of alpine skiing injuries.
  • To document the shift in injury location from lower to upper extremities.
  • To assess the incidence of severe trauma, polytrauma, and mortality in skiers.

Summary:

  • A significant shift in severe alpine skiing injuries from the lower to the upper extremity was observed (50.37%).
  • Fractures and capsular ligament injuries were analyzed for both upper (191 fractures, 118 ligament injuries) and lower extremities (135 fractures, 229 ligament injuries).

  • Polytrauma patients accounted for 3.93% of all cases, with a 1.19% immediate mortality rate.

    • Impact:

    • Highlights evolving injury mechanisms in alpine skiing.
    • Informs preventative strategies and treatment protocols for skiing-related trauma.
    • Provides long-term data on the severity and nature of skiing injuries.
