A photo of Arnold Schwarzenegger (73) is currently going around the world: on Instagram, Arnie surprised his followers with a photo of himself out of the hospital bed, and with the news that he secretly underwent surgery in Cleveland Clinic: “I now have a new aortic heart valve that fits over my new pulmonary heart valve from my last operation.”
The 73-year-old does not reveal when exactly the procedure was performed. However, he already feels “fantastic” again and has apparently already been fired: “I have already walked the streets of Cleveland again and admired the great statues. I would like to thank all the doctors and nurses on my team! “
His son Patrick Schwarzenegger (27) joked in the comments: “Please don’t go training today!” He also posted five hearts.
It is not the first procedure
The “Terminator” star had to undergo emergency surgery at Ceders Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles in March 2018. Doctors initially planned a minor procedure to replace the pulmonary valve. But after complications emerged, the surgical team opted for open heart surgery, which then lasted for several hours. The former governor of California had had a heart operation in 1997. The main artery heart valve used at the time has now also been replaced. (ds / bnr)
