Abstract
This case report presents a rationale and technique for repair of a va scularized red-on-white bucket-handle tear of the glenoid labrum and i ntraarticular biceps tendon [type IV superior labrum anterior-to-poste rior (SLAP) lesion]. This lesion may occur as a component of anterior instability, and as such it demands repair at the same time as anterio r surgical stabilization for instability.
