Marc Marquez on Monday underwent a successful operation at the Ruber Internacional Hospital in Madrid, Spain.

The Ducati Lenovo Team and world champion had a checkup for his right shoulder blade injury following his crash in Indonesia early this month.

The medical team, who already examined Marquez seven days earlier, found that the coracoid fracture and ligament damage were not showing sufficient signs of stabilization after a week of being immobilized, which was the initial treatment plan.

Therefore, given the risk of residual instability, it was decided to go ahead with surgical stabilization and repair the acromioclavicular ligaments.

Surgery was one of the options considered by doctors from the outset in the event that the planned conservative treatment failed. With the operation now successfully undertaken and Marquez already at home, the #93 will continue his recovery process.

His progress will determine the timing of his return to racing competition, with test rider Michele Pirro subbing this weekend in Australia.
