abstract="This case report illustrates an unusual hazard of underwater sports: vagal neuropathology secondary to early poliomyelitis which resulted in residual palato-pharyngeal paresis. Gag and swallowing reflexes appeared to function adequately but in fact were not normal. When stressed, during water aspiration, they were inadequate, resulting in great risk to the underwater enthusiast. A history of early viral myelitis must be considered as a potential hazard in underwater sports.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
