  • Title: Rib fracture due to bench pressing.
    Author: Goeser CD, Aikenhead JA.
    Journal: J Manipulative Physiol Ther; 1990 Jan; 13(1):26-9. PubMed ID: 2324656.
    Abstract:
    Rib fractures are commonly associated with blunt trauma, but there are instances where this is not the case. In this case a patient fractured the second rib during a "bench press" weight lifting maneuver. The possible etiology is proposed, and the incidence, causes, diagnosis, complications, and treatment of rib fractures are discussed.
