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.
