How is Michael Schumacher: F1 legend to undergo another surgery for recovery

How is Michael Schumacher: F1 legend to undergo another surgery for recovery; the player met an accident which caused a brain injury.

It’s been more than 6 years when Michel Schumacher met an accident while doing skiing, which caused a brain injury to him and now he is set to go another surgery for his recovery.

Italian source, Contro Copertina claims the aforementioned. They say that Dr Philippe Menasche, who is regarded as ‘a pioneer in cell surgery’ will be in charge of the operation.

Menasche was also in charge of a similar operation on Schumacher last year. Regarding the aim of the operation, Menasche said, “The goal is to regenerate Michael’s nervous system.”

Dr Nicola Acciari claims that Michael Schumacher is suffering from muscle atrophy and osteoporosis. Both these conditions arise due to the lack of physical activity.

Acciari adds, “Over the past 20 years, science has made enormous progress in the field of stem cell treatment. But that doesn’t change the fact that we still know little about the human brain. We are not able to say what results it (the treatment) will bring.”

Earlier this year, When Dr Nicola Acciari spoke to Contro Copertina she had said, “We must imagine a person very different from the one we remember on the track, with a very altered and deteriorated organic, muscular and skeletal structure. All as a result of the brain trauma he suffered.”

Schumacher’s family has been very private about his injury and his state for last 4 years, and media aren’t permitted to get update on his medical health.
