Runner Elizaveta Chermoshanskaya spoke about the results of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of her husband, long jumper Artem Chermoshansky, who was seriously injured at the PSB Russian Athletics Cup in Cheboksary.
On Monday, Chermoshansky, making his last attempt at the Russian Cup, landed unsuccessfully and injured his knee. He was taken to hospital where he underwent surgery. The athlete managed to avoid a fracture; doctors corrected the dislocation. He was then taken to a Moscow hospital.
“The good news is that the meniscus and its own ligament are completely intact. (In theory, they should have burst too). The vessels are also completely intact! This is super important, blood flow is not impaired! Nerve permeability is also good.
The doctors also have no questions regarding the CT scan. Tema has managed to avoid fractures, which is also very good.
Bad, but expected. The anterior cruciate ligament, external cruciate ligament and posterior cruciate ligament were torn. To be honest, we really hoped that the posterior cruciate would not be completely torn, but in the situation of Artem’s injury, this is impossible.
The treatment will take a long time, but rehabilitation will last even longer. Most likely, there will be 2 stages of treatment. I can also say that many doctors say that Tema is “kissed on the crown”, because in the whole situation that happened, everything could have been much worse, ”Chermoshanskaya wrote on the Telegram channel.
