In the 82nd minute against Borussia Dortmund, Timo Hübers fell to the ground clutching his knee. The FC defender had to be brought off on a stretcher, with the pictures on TV heightening the early fears. After full-time, the 29-year-old was brought to the MediaPark Klinik in Köln via ambulance. On Sunday morning, he underwent an MRI scan which confirmed a severe knee injury.
Per multiple reports, the 23-year-old needed emergency surgery because it was an open dislocation, which is why the procedure was done in the Philadelphia area rather than being transported back to New York. Skattebo suffered the injury midway through the second quarter on Sunday when he was tackled by Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Zack Baun after attempting to reel in a pass from Dart. His foot stuck in the ground and ultimately bent awkwardly beneath him.
Is there maybe a need to go under the knife? There will be a point where they look at that and discuss. Surgical intervention is primarily taken for two reasons. One is to minimise or mitigate the risk of re-injury so you're hoping to stop that. Secondly, is to free the player up so they're returning to those pre-injury levels.
INDIANAPOLIS -- Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin will undergo surgery to repair a partial stress fracture of the fifth metatarsal in his right foot, the team announced Friday. "Probably not recommend talking about this again until probably February 1 [in] three months," coach Rick Carlisle said before the Pacers played the Atlanta Hawks on Friday night. "That's his situation." According to Carlisle, Toppin will have surgery Monday in New York to place a screw in his foot.
"When I was three, they closed my heart up, and as I grew older the difference in leg length grew bigger. "Because the difference was getting so much bigger, I had to get special shoes. On the right side they cut the heel and put extra material in it so I could walk equally. "They measured when I could have surgery when my left leg stopped growing and my right leg could grow equally - and when I was 12 I had that surgery."
"You've been amazed by his quick wit, awed by his persistence, and charmed by his earnestness. If you've been watching the news, you've seen his grief-stricken face and heard, despite his shock, Weston's account of the horrific details during the mass at Annunciation Church. And in spite of everything, this 10-year-old boy was able to express appreciation for his friends and pray for their recovery."
Chris Froome will undergo surgery on Thursday following the crash which required an airlift to hospital in France. Four-time Tour de France winner Chris Froome is to undergo surgery after a serious training crash that saw the British cyclist airlifted to a hospital in France. Froome's team, Israel-Premier Tech, said on Thursday that he was stable and did not sustain any head injuries but added that scans confirmed a pneumothorax, five broken ribs, and a lumbar vertebrae fracture.
A former employee at the hospital told the BBC that internal data showed one third of Mr Lamah's patients had experienced a 'moderate harm event', where, for instance, a patient had to be transferred to another hospital or re-admitted, over a 12-month period. The figure should be 5%, the BBC was told.
Jasper Philipsen has undergone successful surgery on his collarbone and acromioclavicular joint after suffering fractures in the stage 3 crash that saw him forced out of the Tour de France.
"Cancer sucks in any form but I'm holding onto the word 'early'. I just wanted to be open and share it... it breaks my heart that so many people are going through so much similar and worse."
Hey, guys. Bindi here. I just want to say thank you so much for your incredible well-wishes. I just got out of surgery about an hour ago. I had my appendix removed; I also had 14 new endometriosis lesions that had to be removed, and they kindly stitched up my hernia as well.
