The medical team, who already examined Marquez seven days earlier, found that the coracoid fracture and ligament damage were not showing sufficient signs of stabilisation after a week of being immobilised, which was the initial treatment plan.
Therefore, given the risk of residual instability, it was decided to go ahead with surgical stabilisation 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.
