The Fisi announces that the surgery was perfectly successful: Goggia had a plate with seven screws applied, and she will observe a period of about 40 days of rest and unloading, and then begin the more active part of her physiotherapy, which will start in the next few days. “So already in the early afternoon, we organized the surgery with a dedicated team to try to address this type of fracture as best as possible.” As for her return to the slopes, it will have to wait until the next season.
“The surgery went well, a plate with seven screws was placed,” said Panzeri. “Now Sofia is doing well, with her usual strength even though it’s another injury at this point in the season, at a time when she had the red bib, so it was an important season. Tomorrow she will immediately begin her slow physiotherapy journey.
For about 45 days, she will not be allowed to put weight on her foot, after which the more active physiotherapy part will begin. Everyone asks me if there will be the usual Goggia miracle: let’s say that this time it’s a bit less feasible, also because there are biological healing times that we must respect to heal the bone, and because the fracture, affecting the joint, needs even more time to heal. But everything went very well, so we look forward to welcoming her back on the slopes for the next season.
She is a lioness, she will know how to rise again.” February 5, 2024 (updated on February 6, 2024 | 07:42)
