Girondins striker Alberth Elis is still in serious condition on Sunday February 25, after a violent head impact during the Ligue 2 Bordeaux – Guingamp match on Saturday evening, reports France Bleu Gironde. The 28-year-old Honduran underwent skull surgery during the night.
Exited conscious on a stretcher, he was placed in an artificial coma then taken care of by the intensive care unit of CHU Pellegrin.
The player suffered a “trepanation”
The shock took place in the 34th second of play. “There is a cross, I try to cut the ball and return it”Guingamp defender Donatien Gomis explains to France Bleu Gironde. “I think he hits the ball first, I hit him. For a second I was also in a daze. He passed out.”he says.
During the night from Saturday to Sunday, Alberth Elis suffered a “trepanation”, that is, drainage of the extradural hematoma that was putting pressure on his brain. The operation was successful but his state of health remains worrying. You must also wait for the extradural hematoma to diminish to have a first clear image of your brain and to know the possible neurological sequelae.
