Nasty fall in Garmisch
Diagnosis is in: Ortlieb breaks her lower leg
Unfortunately, the suspicion has been confirmed: Nina Ortlieb has suffered a fracture to her lower leg in her fall during the downhill in Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen Ortlieb twisted her leg in her initially seemingly harmless fall and was left lying in the snow screaming for help. The race was interrupted for a long time, and an ambulance and helicopter were subsequently deployed for the rescue. The woman from Vorarlberg was taken to Garmisch-Partenkirchen hospital for detailed medical clarification.
Now the bitter diagnosis: the X-ray examination revealed a fracture of the lower leg. The speed specialist was flown to the Schenk Sanatorium in Schruns for further treatment.
23rd operation
Ortlieb's injury history is book-filling, she had only fought her way back for the umpteenth time after breaking her tibia and fibula. In addition to multiple knee operations, she had fractures in her pelvis, pubic bone, upper arm, metacarpals (3x), ankle (2x), a shoulder dislocation and rib fracture. Her nose was also damaged several times. Now the 28-year-old has to undergo the 23rd (!) operation of her career.
"There is no one who lives for sport more"
"I feel really sorry for her, she's a really good friend. She does everything for the sport, there's no one who lives for the sport more," said Ariane Rädler. Cornelia Hütter was also among those shocked in the finish area. "Nina has already been through a lot."
