    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Traumatology
    • Sports Medicine

    Background:

    • Cervical spine injuries are a significant concern in recreational activities.
    • Skiing accidents, particularly those involving collisions, pose a risk for severe neck trauma.

    Observation:

    • A retrospective review of 18 patients with skiing-related cervical spine injuries was conducted.
    • Four patients required surgical intervention due to spinal instability.
    • Twelve patients sustained concurrent head injuries, with two undergoing surgery.

    Findings:

    • The study analyzed the specific causes of cervical spine injuries in this cohort.
    • One fatality resulted from a severe craniocervical injury due to a skier collision.
    • Instability was a key factor necessitating surgical treatment in a subset of patients.
