Posted by Aaress Lawless on Apr 10, 2008 | Print |
India’s Sania Mirza is scheduled to undergo an operation in the United States today to surgically repair her right wrist.
Her recovery is expected to take at least four weeks.
According to a Globosport press release and MSN India, Mirza’s decision to have surgery was influenced by a MRI scan which revealed damage to her hand.
“A recent MRI showed contusion of her lunate bone with some inflammation and a suspected tear in the volar capsule. She is undergoing arthroscopy to repair the capsule and to clean out debris formed from chronic inflammation,” wrote MSN India on Thursday. “Reknowned hand specialist Dr Badia will perform the surgery.”
The surgery will take place in Miami, Florida.
