Complications with her abdominal injury made a "small, unexpected operation" necessary on Thursday, Shiffrin wrote on Instagram. "It turned out that a small cavity had formed that was deeper than the wound tract and was filled with old hematomas."
Shiffrin suffered the injury at the end of November during her heavy fall in the giant slalom in Killington, Vermont. In her former home country, she was leading after the first run on the way to her 100th World Cup victory. As far as the length of her convalescence was concerned, she had already assumed "a few weeks" before the operation.
