Dani Pedrosa’s second surgery on his fractured collarbone has been deemed successful by Dr.
Xavier Mir, Chief of the Pathology Unit of the Hand of Dexeus USP, and Dr.
Cesar Garcia Madrid, vascular specialist of the Institute Planell at Teknon Medical Center who performed in conjunction the surgery on the Repsol Honda rider.
This second operation, his third this season, was to fix, by compression osteosynthesis, a small fragment of bone that had dislodged during the rehabilitation process, apparently this technique allows for faster consolidation and minimises the resting time, and according to Dr.
Mir, Pedrosa can begin rehabilitation in the next 48 hours.
Whether the Spaniard will be up to taking part in next week’s round at Assen still remains to be seen and more news will probably be available on Monday or Tuesday at the latest.
