Title: [Concussion in children and adolescents during sports]. Author: Tercier S, Newman CJ. Journal: Rev Med Suisse; 2014 Jul 16; 10(437):1461-5. PubMed ID: 25141567. Abstract: Concussion, a frequent injury in sports, is rarely evoked and often trivialized in children and teenagers. Knowledge of the diverse symptoms and signs to seek for is essential to an appropriate and secure management.

The aim of this article is to review an injury whose prognosis is generally favourable, but whose rare complications can prove dramatic.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
