"After speaking to consultants and seeking specialist opinion, the decision has been taken in Dan's [Lydiate] best interests to undergo surgery," Chris Towers, Ospreys Medical Performance Manager, confirmed. 

"That process will take place this week, ruling him out of consideration for the rest of the current season."

Wales begin their Six Nations campaign against Scotland in Cardiff on February 3.
