Arnold Schwarzenegger had heart surgery
American actor and former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is recovering from heart surgery, the second in as many years.
The "Terminator" star posted a photo on Fritter on Friday of himself in a hospital bed with his thumbs up.
“Thanks to the Cleveland Clinic team, I have a new aortic valve to go with my new pulmonary valve from my last operation,” he wrote in his post.
Thanks to the team at the Cleveland Clinic, I have a new aortic valve to go along with my new pulmonary valve from my last surgery. I feel fantastic and have already been walking the streets of Cleveland enjoying your amazing statues. Thank you to every doc and nurse on my team! pic.twitter.com/hmIbsEMHtA - Arnold (@Schwarzenegger) October 23, 2020
He added that he feels "fantastic" and has already "walked the streets of Cleveland to admire your incredible statues".
According to People magazine , the operation comes two years after another operation to replace a pulmonary valve.
Due to a congenital heart defect, Arnold Schwarzenegger already had an aortic valve replacement in 1997. That same year, he also had a pulmonary valve replacement, reports People magazine .
