CAIRO, March 7 (Xinhua) -- Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak is in stable condition after a cholecystectomy surgery in Germany, the office of Egypt's Information Minister said in a press release on Sunday.
"President Mubarak spent an uneventful night with uninterrupted sleep in the intensive care unit, his recovery continues to progress satisfactorily," according to the release obtained by Xinhua.
"He is clinically stable, with normal vital signs, and his condition is really good this morning. ... He remains under our utmost medical care in the forthcoming days as he continues to recover," the release said quoting a joint brief made by Dr. Marcus Buchler of Heidelberg University Hospital and Egyptian Health Minister Hatem El Gabaly in Germany.
Mubarak, 81, has undergone on Saturday a successful cholecystectomy surgery in Germany after he suffered acute gall bladder inflammation accompanied by gall stones.
