Derek Hough's Wife Undergoes Emergency Brain Surgery

Derek Hough revealed that his wife, Hayley Erbert, underwent emergency brain surgery after being diagnosed with a cranial hematoma from a burst blood vessel. Erbert became disoriented after a performance and was hospitalized. She is now in stable condition. An intracranial hematoma is a collection of blood within the skull, usually caused by a burst blood vessel in the brain. The condition can be life-threatening and requires immediate treatment. Hough did not provide details on how Erbert sustained the injury. Last year, she was involved in a car accident.
