Sidoli joined Bristol in the summer

Bristol lock Robert Sidoli has had successful surgery on a depressed skull fracture suffered in last month's game against Montpellier.

The 29-year-old Welshman suffered the injury in the first half of the 25-14 win in the European Challenge Cup.

Bristol's head of medical services Rich Mack told the club website: "If all goes well, he'll be able to do some light training in a couple of weeks."

Sidoli, who has 42 caps for Wales, will be limited to non-contact training.
