STUDY DESIGN: Case report. OBJECTIVE: An unusual and previously not reported case of upper thoracic disc herniation combined with acute chest pain, is presented. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Disc herniation in the thoracic spine is rare. There are only a few cases of thoracic disc herniation in top athletes presented in the literature. The clinical presentation of a thoracic disc herniation can vary widely depending on its location and morphologic characteristics. Clinically, the acute symptoms may be severe. METHODS: A 24-year-old soccer player with acute left-sided chest pain that started in the middle of a soccer game has been followed clinically and with MRI examinations for 3 years. RESULTS: MRI of the thoracic spine showed a left-sided paramedial disc herniation at T2-T3 level and the right-sided paramedial disc herniation at T3-T4 level. The player was prescribed initial rest and subsequent physical rehabilitation. He had no further symptoms during rehabilitation to full training, and could resume play and remained symptom free for the rest of the season.The following season, the player experienced a similar sudden thoracic pain episode during training. This time the chest pain was right-sided. A new MRI of the thoracic spine showed unchanged findings. The initial rehabilitation was similar to the one used in the first episode. After 15 months with no symptoms during normal life the player was allowed to increase the intensity of training gradually and after 2 years the patient played soccer at elite level again. However, 3 years later the symptoms relapsed and the player ended his career after another rehabilitation period. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, it is important to consider thoracic disc herniation as acute chest pain in athletes and that the long-term prognosis of this entity is not always good.
