US First Lady Melania Trump had surgery on Monday for what aides called a “benign” kidney condition and will remain in hospital for the rest of the week.
The Slovenia-born wife of Donald Trump underwent an embolization procedure, said her communications director Stephanie Grisham.
“The procedure was successful and there were no complications,” Grisham said, adding that the 48-year-old former model is expected to stay in hospital “for the duration of the week.”
“The First Lady looks forward to a full recovery so she can continue her work on behalf of children everywhere.”
Embolization is most often used to cut the blood supply to a cancerous or non-cancerous tumor.
Trump is being kept at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, just north of Washington, where many presidents and first families have received treatment.
