Abstract

The gender distribution of 246,277 trauma patients was investigated for 9 different categories of accidents. For all categories, a young male peak was observed for the 20-29-yr.-olds. Until the age of 59 years, prevalence of men was clear for all types of accidents. After the age of 60 a reversal to prevalence of women was observed for accidental falls.
