Materazzi Successfull Cheekbone Operation
The Italian international defender underwent an operation to reconstruct a fractured cheekbone sustained during Tuesday's 2-1 Champions League defeat at Werder Bremen.
The operation at the San Matteo hospital in Pavia was successfully performed by ENT specialist Marco Benazzo and maxillofacial surgeon Silvestre Galioto under the supervision of Inter team doctor Franco Combi.
According to the club's official website the player's recovery time is unknown at the moment and will be assessed in the coming days.
Inter Milan will be without Materazzi for Sunday's game against Chievo, and he is also doubtful for Inter's last league game of the year at Siena on December 20.
