TY - JOUR PY - 2014// TI - Severe fractures while driving a Segway personal transporter JO - Ugeskrift for Laeger A1 - Brink, Ole A1 - Heiselberg, Svend Erik SP - e1408 EP - e1408 VL - 176 IS - 30 N2 - We present two cases of patients who sustained severe fractures while driving a Segway in an amusement park. The first, a 59-year-old man, had a displaced femoral neck fracture ope-rated with three screws. After two and a half months he had a total hip replacement. After three weeks he had another re-placement due to infection. The second, a 26-year-old male, had a displaced femoral neck fracture operated with three screws. The fracture healed uneventfully. The Segway's legal position, in Denmark, is like bicycles. For statistics, we have specific codes for trauma with a Segway.
