Dipartimento Materno Infantile, USL 13 di Livorno, Italia.

The survey of the epidemiologic data points out that suicide among adolescents is, as a matter of fact, a social emergency all over the world. This phenomenon is dramatically topical in our country too. The authors sum up the present knowledge about both risk and precipitating factors relating the suicide dynamics with particular references to potential prevention strategies. With regard to this specific issue they underline the predominant role played by pediatricians in both social and medical field.
