So she is now in the hospital, having surgery for a ruptured appendix and a complex fracture.”

Shouldn't that be "compound fracture"?

Nope.

        I had a complex fracture of the left shoulder.  Essentially, they had to go in, find the pieces of bone, and put them together like a jigsaw puzzle.

        Then later, another operation, when two things grew together that shouldn't have.  Final result: it's not quite anatomical, but it works.
