PMID 37425109WHAT IT FOUND
This paper reviews posterior shoulder instability in tennis players but reports no new clinical results.
It describes how to identify and manage the condition, noting that micro-trauma from repetitive overhead movements is a key cause, but offers no evidence from a trial or cohort study to change practice.
What this paper is
This is a clinical commentary describing the aetiology, classification, assessment and management of posterior shoulder instability in tennis players. It reviews existing concepts and describes a rehabilitation program but reports no new patient data, outcomes, or comparative results from the study itself. Therefore, there are no primary findings from this specific paper to act on.
