The England international sustained the injury to his ankle ligaments during the Premier League match with Manchester United on Saturday at Emirates Stadium.
Manager Arsene Wenger confirmed that he would travel to see a specialist for an operation, and the 22-year-old underwent successful surgery in London on Thursday afternoon.
Wilshere will now undergo his latest round of rehabilitation with the Gunner’s medical team, after already missing portions of the current campaign with a number of other niggling problems.
