Aims

To describe the distribution and clinical presentation of SLAP tears in rugby players, and time taken for return to sport.

Method

A retrospective review of 51 shoulder arthroscopies performed on professional rugby players over a 35 month period was carried out. All patients diagnosed with a SLAP lesion at arthroscopy were identified. Each patient's records were reviewed to record age, injury side, mechanism of injury, clinical diagnosis, investigations and results, management, and return to play.
