Scottish judoka Stephanie Inglis says she is recovering well after she underwent a final operation following a life-threatening motorcycle accident in Vietnam last year.

Inglis had surgery last week to fit a metal plate to her skull to protect her from any further brain damage as she continues her remarkable recovery from the crash.

"Operation went well and just managed a little dinner," she Tweeted after the operation.

"Sore head and pretty tired as expected but doing well thanks for all your messages."

The Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games silver medallist then tweeted that she had a "pretty swollen head that’s a bit sore" but remained upbeat, adding that "good progress" had been made.

"Woke up with a massive swollen black eye and getting moved ward but my new bed is so much comfier than the last one so that's good," her latest update read.

Inglis suffered head injuries when her skirt got caught in the wheel of the vehicle and pulled her off the bike on May 10.

The accident happened as she made her way to a school in Ha Long where she had been teaching English to disadvantaged children for the previous four months.

The 28-year-old, who was initially given a one per cent chance of survival, woke from a medically-induced coma in early June.

Inglis, who has targeted making a sensational return to judo in time to represent her country at the 2022 Commonwealth Games, scheduled to be held in Durban, then returned home to Scotland having been flown by a UK air ambulance from the hospital in Bangkok where she was being treated after being transferred from Vietnam.

She was then transferred to Edinburgh’s Western General Hospital, where she underwent further treatment in a specialist unit.

Inglis suffered a broken neck in two places, pneumonia, septicaemia, and deep vein thrombosis in her left arm after the accident.

British judoka Khalid Gehlan, a family friend, set up a GoFundMe page to help Inglis with her hospital bills, which were costing around £2,000 ($2,500/€2,300) a day after her travel insurance expired.

A total of £327,892 ($410,000/€382,000) was raised by 7,537 people.
