The majority of pediatric sports-related injuries are relatively benign and are easily treated with conservative measures. When surgical intervention is required, it is usually effective in returning the athlete to participation within a reasonable time frame. Effective care of pediatric athletes, however, involves not only knowledge of the many types of injuries and their treatments but also insight into the demands of the various sports and the needs of individual athletes. Treatment and resumption of participation recommendations frequently vary depending on the patient's sport, level of participation, and willingness to substitute alternative sports for his or her primary one. As always, individualizing treatment leads to greater patient satisfaction and improved results.
大多数与运动相关的儿童损伤相对良性，采用保守措施很容易治疗。当需要手术干预时，通常能有效使运动员在合理时间内恢复参赛。然而，对儿童运动员的有效护理不仅需要了解多种损伤类型及其治疗方法，还需要洞察各类运动的要求以及个体运动员的需求。治疗和恢复参赛的建议常常因患者的运动项目、参赛水平以及用替代运动取代其主要运动项目的意愿而有所不同。一如既往，个性化治疗会带来更高的患者满意度和更好的治疗效果。
