Abstract
Summary Undetected brain injury in sports: minor traumatic brain injury and its consequences. Part 1 Minor traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in sport must be regarded as an injury to the brain which requires treatment. All mTBIs sustained earlier must be duly recorded and taken into consideration in drawing up a treatment plan.

Sports activities should be resumed only when all physical, and also cognitive, symptoms have subsided.
