Skier Cyprien Sarrazin Stable After Brain Surgery

French skier Cyprien Sarrazin is recovering in stable condition after successful surgery to drain a subdural hematoma following a serious fall during training in Bormio, Italy. The 30-year-old skier was airlifted to the hospital after losing control on December 27, leading to the emergency procedure on the same day. Medical assessments revealed no additional injuries beyond some foot and knee pain, which were described as reassuring. Sarrazin is expected to be repatriated to France for further recovery at the Médipôle de Lyon, although the timeline for his rehabilitation remains uncertain, and he is unlikely to return to competition this season. His accident highlights the dangers associated with the challenging Stelvio slope, which has seen multiple injuries among skiers in recent days. The French Ski Federation has confirmed that Sarrazin's length of unavailability is currently undetermined.
