(Reuters) – Former U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi underwent a successful hip replacement surgery in Luxembourg and is “well on the mend,” her office said in a statement.
Pelosi was injured on a trip to Luxembourg and was admitted to a hospital for evaluation, her office said on Friday.
Pelosi, 84, was the first woman to serve as speaker of the House and had also been a longtime leader of the House Democratic Caucus.
