Ligamentous injuries of the knee in skiing.

A scoring system for the long-term comparative evaluation of patients with knee ligament injuries was presented. Twenty-four patients hospitalized for injuries to knee ligaments from skiing accidents were examined at a mean of more than 4 years after hospitalization. Eighteen had required surgery, and most were found not to have high scores at the long-term follow-up evaluation. Mechanisms of injury to explain why certain types of falls result in particular injuries were presented.
