Abstract
Trigger point “dry needling” is a technique used to treat myofascial pain. It involves using filiform needles which are inserted into muscles to give local pain relief.

In this paper we describe the case of a professional swimmer who developed pneumothorax after dry needling treatment and discuss the medicolegal and ethical aspects related to competencies and responsibilities of medical doctors and physiotherapists performing the procedure.
