Background : Generalized ligamentous laxity is defined as an increased range of joint motion compared to that of the general population.
It is a predisposing factor for sports injuries, especially in the lower extremities.
Nevertheless, there is little evidence about the relationship between generalized ligamentous laxity and sports injuries in the upper extremities.
Objectives : To evaluate the relationship of generalized ligamentous laxity with acute and chronic shoulder injuries in athletes.
Patients and Methods: Our study comprised 118 volunteer athletes with a history of at least six months of sports activities and a shoulder injury in the three years prior to participation in our study.
The athletes were divided into two groups: those with or without generalized ligamentous laxity.
Acute and chronic shoulder injuries, shoulder pain, shoulder instability, and functional status assessed via the QuickDASH measure were determined and compared between the two groups.
A P value of less than 0.05 was considered significant.
Results : Group A (with ligamentous laxity) consisted of 43 participants (36.4 %) and group B (without ligamentous laxity) consisted of 75 participants (63.6 %).
The athletes in group A had more shoulder pain (P = 0.016), chronic shoulder injuries (P = 0.032), and shoulder instability (P = 0.004), and less functionality (P = 0.030) than those in group B.
If fracture were not considered an acute injury in both groups, the athletes with generalized ligamentous laxity would have had more acute shoulder injuries.
Conclusions : Generalized ligamentous laxity is an important predisposing factor for acute and chronic shoulder injuries in athletes.
Prescreening programs for beginners and rehabilitation shoulder programs for sports athletes at high risk are strongly recommended.
