[Expertises on growth disturbances in children seen from the aspect of private accident insurance (author's transl)].

In private accident insurance, a degree of disability established for the insured and the insuring party for the first time in a binding manner, cannot be established as a new fact if more than 3 years have elapsed since the accident occurred. In private accident insurance for children, the right to confirm the disability as a new fact, is limited to a period of 5 years, but not beyond the age of 18. If post-traumatic disturbances in young children (following injuries of the epiphyseal cartilage, bone and articular infections etc..) do not supply sufficient pointers towards the possible or probable findings at the termination of growth, the physician writing the expertise should draw attention to this fact and should state that as far as the medical situation is concerned, determination of the first occurrence cannot be made now and is possible at the stage of termination of growth only.
