  • Description: Swimming-induced pulmonary edema occurs when fluid accumulates in the lungs in the absence of water aspiration during swimming and produces acute shortness of breath and a cough with blood-tinged sputum. We report a case of a 58-year-old female athlete presenting with acute dyspnea during the swimming portion of a half-triathlon competition. She had complete resolution within 24 h of presentation.
