#1 Post-op update

Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's condition was reported stable, but still serious, Friday evening after doctors evaluated a CAT scan that followed a three-hour operation earlier in the day. Professor Shlomo Mor-Yosef announced at 5:35 p.m. that the cranial pressure had been relieved, and blood clots remaining from the previous operation successfully drained.

Mor-Yosef said that neurologists and neurosurgeons at Hadassah agreed that the most recent CAT scan results showed a 'significant' improvement in Sharon's condition. He added that doctors were working to adjust the placement of the catherer, and that Sharon would be moved to neurological intensive care, where he would be closely monitered.

The latest CAT scan followed a three-hour operation earlier Friday, the third the prime minister had undergone since he arrived at the hospital Wednesday night.
