Argentine President's Surgery for Blood Clot Successful
2013-10-09
[An Nahar] Surgery on Tuesday to remove a blood clot from the brain of Argentina's President Cristina Kirchner was successful, a government spokesman said.

A medical report said Kirchner is progressing "favorably" after the surgery, which encountered "no complications."

She remains in an intensive care unit.

"It went very well. The president is in good spirits and is already in her room," said spokesman Alfredo Scoccimarro.

Kirchner was diagnosed over the weekend with a "chronic subdural hematoma" resulting from a blow to the head sustained in a fall in mid-August.

#3  So, Kirchner will get through her subdural hematoma, and then lead her country on again to successful ruin.
