Notes

  1. ^Record was set using a butterfly technique and was nullified in 1953.
  2. ^Record was set in a 25 m pool and was annulled after World Aquatics required 50 m pools to be used.
  3. ^After the records set in a 25 m pool were nullified, the world record was reverted to Herbert Klein's mark from 1950, which John Davies equaled in 1952. However, these records were also later annulled because they employed a butterfly technique.
  4. ^Masaru Furukawa and Mamoru Tanaka set their world records by swimming most of the race while underwater. Their records were annulled in 1956.

- denotes top performance for athletes in the top 25 200 m breaststroke times
- denotes lesser performances, still in the top 25 200 m breaststroke times, by repeat athletes
- denotes top performance (only) for other top 25 athletes who fall outside the top 25 200 m breaststroke times
