Posted Apr 7 2010 5:05PM

Raptors forward Chris Bosh underwent successful surgery today to repair a displaced nasal fracture. The procedure was performed by Dr. Frank Papay at The Cleveland Clinic. Bosh will remain in the hospital overnight in Cleveland.

Raptors Team Medical Director/Orthopaedic Surgeon Dr. Paul Marks will be available to the media at 6:15 p.m. in Multi-Purpose Room B, located directly across from the Raptors locker room.

Bosh left last night's game in Cleveland at the 9:52 mark of the first quarter after receiving an inadvertent elbow to the face. A CT scan taken at The Cleveland Clinic revealed both a non-displaced maxilla fracture and a displaced nasal fracture to the right side of his face.

The Raptors play host to Boston tonight at Air Canada Centre (7 p.m., TSN2/FAN 590).
