Haussler undergoes surgery on knee

Heinrich Haussler will be forced to miss his new team’s official presentation later this week as he continues to suffer from a knee injury after a crash in November.

Haussler will be forced to undergo surgery on his knee on Monday in order to treat the problem but Bahrain-Merida expect him to be back to training fairly quickly.

"After a bike crash in November, the rider had suffered a cartilage injury and a ligament torsion of the left knee. After many conservative therapies, the last MRI of control shows a hypertrophic synovial plica inside the knee," explained team doctor Carlo Guardascione.

"So today afternoon, in the Sanatorium Clinic of Schruns in Austria, the professor Schenk will do an Arthroscopic surgery to treat the problem. The recovery physiotherapy will start tomorrow and the rider will not be able to travel to Bahrain in [the] next days."
