Robert Kubica

Robert last week........

Robert this week..........

On a positive note it seems the 7 hour operation may have been successful with his hand well vascularised and warm. Robert could be woken from his induced coma tomorrow.
Director  of hand surgery at San Paolo Hospital, Professor Mario Igor Rossello said....
“It has been a very important and difficult operation. Robert Kubica’s right forearm was cut in two places, with significant lesions to the bones and the tendons. We did our best to rebuild the functions of the forearm. It took seven doctors, split into two teams and a total of seven hours to complete the operation. One team was the emergency task force from the hospital of San Paolo (Savona) that is normally appointed to treat this sort of injury, while the other team came from the orthopaedic department of the Santa Corona Hospital (Pietra Ligure). At the end of the operation, Robert’s hand was well vascularised and warm, which is encouraging. Following the surgery, Robert Kubica will remain under permanent monitoring overnight because his condition remains serious.”
