Meta Platforms Inc. founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg underwent surgery following a knee injury he sustained during a mixed martial arts session.
In a post on Instagram, Zuckerberg said he tore a knee ligament while training mixed martial arts.
In the post, the 39-year-old posted a series of pictures of himself from a hospital bed, with one of his knees in an elaborate brace.
“Tore my ACL sparring and just got out of surgery to replace it,” Zuckerberg wrote. “Grateful for the doctors and team taking care of me.”
