Ireland centre Gordon D'Arcy will miss the rest of this season's Six Nations Championship due to a foot injury.
The Leinster player is likely to be sidelined for six weeks, the Irish Rugby Football Union announced.
Ireland have already lost wing Simon Zebo (foot) for the rest of the tournament, while fly-half Jonathan Sexton (hamstring) and lock Mike McCarthy (knee ligament strain) will also miss the game against Scotland at Murrayfield on February 24.
