Abstract
Forced expiration against a closed glottis (Valsalva manoeuvre), an event which occurs frequently in athletic exertion, can result in pneumomediastinum. Pneumomediastinum attributable to athletic activity, however, is reported infrequently, with only ten cases described in the literature. We believe this is the first reported case of pneumomediastinum occurring in a rugby player during training. Verf.-Referat
