Shoulder Labrum Tear The shoulder labrum is a thick piece of tissue attached to the rim of the shoulder socket that helps keep the ball of the joint in place. The labrum can tear a few different ways: 1) completely off the bone, 2) within or along the edge of the labrum, or 3) where the bicep tendon attaches.

Hip Labral Tear FAQ's The labrum is a fibrocartilage rim that surrounds the hip joint and gives it stability. This type of cartilage seals the joint, deepens the socket and protects the joint by decreasing the forces transmitted to the joint. A tear to the labrum can cause pain in the front of the hip, in the groin or side of the hip. The pain usually worsens with walking, pivoting or impact activities such as running.

Labral Tears The shoulder is a ball and socket joint. The socket of the shoulder is surrounded by a ring of soft tissue, called the labrum. The socket, or glenoid, is fairly shallow, and the labrum serves to deepen the cavity of the glenoid.

What Is a Torn Shoulder Labrum? Types of Labral Tears. A SLAP tear is a type of labral tear most commonly seen in overhead throwing athletes such as baseball players and tennis players. The torn labrum seen in a SLAP tear is at the top of the shoulder socket where the biceps tendon attaches to the shoulder.

shoulder joint shoulder joint, the ball and socket articulation of the humerus with the scapula. The joint includes eight bursae and five ligaments, including the glenoidal labrum that deepens the articular cavity and protects the edges of articulating bones. It is the most mobile joint in the body. Also called humeral articulation.

Description 1 Labrum: The labrum serves to deepen the glenoid fossa by around 50%, allowing for more contact area between the surface of glenoid and the humeral head. 2  The increase in contact area also enhances joint stability. 3  Common pathologies of the labrum include SLAP lesions and Bankart lesions.

- 1 A Bankart tear is a labral tear that occurs when a shoulder dislocates. When the shoulder comes out of joint, the labrum is torn, and makes the shoulder more susceptible to future dislocations.  Posterior labral tears are less common, but sometimes seen in athletes in a condition called internal impingement.

- Labrum: In medicine, a ring of fibrocartilage (fibrous cartilage) around the edge of the articular (joint) surface of a bone. The term labrum is used in anatomy to designate a lip, edge, or brim. Plural: labra. The glenoid labrum is a ring of fibrocartilage that runs around the cavity of the scapula (wingbone) in which the head of the humerus (the bone in the upper arm) fits. The labrum deepens this cavity (the glenoid cavity) and effectively increases the surface of the shoulder joint.

- 1 If you have a torn labrum, the surgeon will repair it. The labrum is the cartilage that lines the rim of the shoulder joint. 2  Ligaments that attach to this area will also be repaired.  The Bankart lesion is a tear on the labrum in the lower part of the shoulder joint.

Glenoid Labrum Tear Tears can be located either above (superior) or below (inferior) the middle of the glenoid socket. A SLAP lesion (superior labrum, anterior [front] to posterior [back]) is a tear of the rim above the middle of the socket that may also involve the biceps tendon.

SLAP Tear of the Shoulder Updated September 25, 2016. A SLAP tear is an injury to a part of the shoulder joint called the labrum. The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint, similar to the hip joint. However, unlike the hip joint, the socket of the shoulder joint is extremely shallow, and thus inherently unstable.

Acetabular labrum The acetabular labrum (glenoidal labrum of the hip joint or cotyloid ligament in older texts) is a ring of cartilage that surrounds the acetabulum of the hip.The anterior portion is most vulnerable when the labrum tears.ears of the hip labrum can be classified in a variety of ways, including morphology, etiology, location, or severity. Anatomical modifications of the femur and or hip socket cause a slow buildup of damage to the cartilage. Femur or acetabular dysplasia can lead to femoral acetabular impingement (FAI).

Anatomy The shoulder joint has three bones: the shoulder blade (scapula), the collarbone (clavicle), and the upper arm bone (humerus). The head of the upper arm bone (humeral head) rests in a shallow socket in the shoulder blade called the glenoid. The head of the upper arm bone is usually much larger than the socket, and a soft fibrous tissue rim called the labrum surrounds the socket to help stabilize the joint. The rim deepens the socket by up to 50% so that the head of the upper arm bone fits better.

Bankart Procedure labrum and capsule around its rim (similar to a meniscus). The labrum is wedge-shaped and attaches almost completely around the edge of the glenoid. This creates a deeper cup for the glenoid socket. This is important because the glenoid socket is so flat and shallow that the ball of the humerus does not fit tightly. The labrum creates a deeper cup for ball of the humerus to fit into. This makes a contribution to the stability of the joint. The labrum may become detached in patients with dislocations of the shoulder (causing a Bankart lesion ). For more information see Labral Tears .

What Is a Torn Shoulder Labrum? This cuff of cartilage makes the shoulder joint much more stable, and allows for a very wide range of movements (in fact, the range of movements your shoulder can make far exceeds any other joint in the body). The labrum is made of a thick tissue that is susceptible to injury with trauma to the shoulder joint. When a patient sustains a shoulder injury, it is possible that the patient has a labral tear. The labrum also becomes more brittle with age, and can fray and tear as part of the aging process.

Labral Tear of the Shoulder Labral Tear of the Shoulder. The labrum is a piece of fibrocartilage (rubbery tissue) attached to the rim of the shoulder socket that helps keep the ball of the joint in place. When this cartilage is torn, it is called a labral tear. Labral tears may result from injury, or sometimes as part of the aging process.

Physical Therapist's Guide to  Shoulder Labral Tear What is a Shoulder Labral Tear? The ring of cartilage called the glenoid labrum provides extra support for the shoulder joint, helping to keep it in place. A shoulder labral tear occurs when part of this ring is disrupted, frayed, or torn. Tears may lead to shoulder pain, an unstable shoulder joint, and, in severe cases, dislocation of the shoulder. Likewise, a shoulder dislocation can result in labral tears.

Glenoid Labrum Tear Injuries are classed as either superior, towards the top of the glenoid socket, or inferior towards the bottom of the glenoid socket. A superior injury is known as a SLAP lesion (superior labrum, anterior to posterior and is a tear of the rim above the middle of the socket that may also involve the biceps tendon. A tear of the rim below the middle of the glenoid socket is called a Bankart lesion and also involves the inferior glenohumeral ligament. Tears of the glenoid labrum may often occur with other shoulder injuries, such as a dislocated shoulder.
