Definition: The SLAP tear is a specific injury to a part of the shoulder joint called the labrum. The shoulder joint is a ball-and-socket joint, similar to the hip; however, the socket of the shoulder joint is extremely shallow, and thus inherently unstable. ... Bankart Lesion...

The humerous may be forced out of the glenoid or overhead pitching sports may also take their toll on the shoulder joint. ... Either may cause a SLAP Lesion, which stands for a tear in the Superior Labrum, Anterior to Posterior. In a SLAP Lesion, the labrum is torn from the front to the back. The superior labrum is...

PURPOSE: To document the complication of bioabsorbable poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) tack breakage and repair failure after arthroscopic stabilization of SLAP lesions. ... Subsequent arthroscopy to evaluate biceps anchor healing, remove tack fragments, and restabilize the labral lesion may be indicated. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the findings of MR arthrography of the shoulder and to assess the role of MR arthrography in the diagnosis of superior labrum anterior to posterior (SLAP) lesion type V. ... CONCLUSION: It is difficult to detect all three findings of SLAP lesion type V in one imaging plane,

A SLAP lesion originates at the superior posterior labrum to the biceps anchor and extends anteriorly on the superior labrum. The proximal biceps tendon originates from the supraglenoid tubercle of the glenoid and blends into the fibers of the labrum and capsule surrounding this insertion.

In normal shoulders (ie, no SLAP lesion), peak torque increased 22% and peak torsional rigidity increased 32% in shoulders with maximal biceps (loading versus unloaded shoulders).14 In shoulders with a simulated SLAP lesion and no biceps loading, the observed peak torque was 12% lower than that of normal specimens,
