Alessandra Drusian Undergoes Hip Replacement, Now Recovering at Home

The operation followed five years of conservative care, with the couple citing a recent TV program as the final push.

Overview

  • Drusian had a hip prosthesis on January 8 after postponing surgery for about five years of physiotherapy, injections and painkillers.
  • She was discharged after a short hospital stay and is resting at home before starting rehabilitation.
  • Her husband and duo partner Fabio Ricci explained on La Volta Buona that a TV program aggravated her condition, prompting the decision to operate.
  • The couple shared photos and video updates from the hospital and discharge, including Drusian’s lighthearted comment about postoperative pain medication.
  • Drusian publicly thanked surgeon Dr. Andrea Baldini and the team at Casa di Cura Villa Betania, as well as the anesthetist, and has paused work commitments during recovery.
