Ulster winger, Andrew Trimble, will miss the rest of this season following a reoccurrence of the toe injury that he sustained in October against Glasgow Warriors.
He underwent surgery in London today and is expected to be out of rugby until the summer.
It is hoped that he will make a full recovery ahead of pre-season and the Rugby World Cup.
