Cyprien Sarrazin is still recovering from the huge fall he suffered during the second training descent in Bormio on December 27. Helicoptered to the hospital, the French skier had to undergo an operation to resolve an intracranial hematoma. This intervention went well and, in a press release published this Thursday, the French Ski Federation confirms that his state of health is “stable“, assuring on the other hand that he does not know the duration of his unavailability. One thing is certain: you will have to be patient.
At present, Cyprien Sarrazin is still at Sondalo hospital but he has left the neurological intensive care unit to join another care unit. The good news of the day lies in the rest of the medical assessment which did not detect any lesions in the Frenchman's lower body (feet and knees). “A long period of recovery and then rehabilitation is now underway and the duration of his unavailability is currently undetermined.“, specifies the FFS.
Stéphane Bulle, the French team doctor, also explains that the MRI performed on Tuesday leaves “consider repatriation to France this Friday January 3 and hospitalization in the neurosurgery department of the Médipole de Lyon“. A week after his terrible accident, Cyprien Sarrazin could therefore return to France and continue his recovery.
