South Africa's Ruan Combrinck is likely to miss the remainder of the Rugby Championship season after suffering a broken leg against Argentina on Saturday.
The 26-year-old Lions winger was injured seven minutes before half-time and an X-ray confirmed he had fractured his fibula.
South Africa, who lost the game in Salta 26-24, may also be without Elton Jantjies for the next game in Australia on September 10.
The fly-half will undergo a scan to discover the extent of the problem.
The defeat was their first in Argentina and new coach Allister Coetzee is already under pressure.
Regarding the game, he said: "As a team, we made some crucial mistakes and they (Argentina) made better use of their opportunities than we did.
"We had enough opportunities to create scoreboard pressure but we did not take them.
"At test level, you must take your opportunities or you will get punished. We missed some penalties and also didn't score tries when we were in a position to do so.
The defeat is hurting and the Springboks will never be satisfied with a loss.
"But credit to Argentina because they really worked for their victory. The defeat is hurting and the Springboks will never be satisfied with a loss.
"We will regroup and work hard to improve as a team so that we can be ready for the next test against Australia in Brisbane."
