The 31-year-old underwent surgery on Sunday and the procedure was a success, with the initial prognosis suggesting he is likely be out of action for between three to six weeks.
As a result, Nene will definitely miss the UEFA Champions league games against Dinamo Zagreb (home and away), as well as the French League Cup tie with fellow high-flyers Marseille at the end of the month.
The Brazilian has made seven appearances for the Parisians this term, claiming three assists in the process.
Meanwhile, PSG have also confirmed defender Mamadou Sakho is on the treatment table after picking up a thigh strain in Saturday's match.
The 22-year-old is due to undergo scans this week to ascertain the full extent of the injury.
