Ken Roczen’s 11th Surgery

If you have been following Ken Roczen’s road to recovery after his massive crash back at Anaheim 2 in January, you would have seen the results of the 11 surgeries he was gone through to get him arm back into a functioning shape. From almost losing his arm on the verge of compartment syndrome, to being stitched back up with an external fixator the size of his forearm protruding out his skin, then going under the knife again with a bone graft to repair his scaphoid, and now K-Roc has taken to Instagram again to show us the graphic imagery of his latest surgery on his elbow. Roczen didn’t reveal much: “Elbow surgery took a bit longer than expected. Stoked we got it out of the way! Huge thank you to the donor! Very very thankful”, but it looks like part of his radius was replaced with a donor radius bone. We wish K-Roc all the best on his road to recovery.

If you’re not into surgical gore, don’t watch the video below.

This arm will be raised the highest after my next win. #dontcallitacomeback
