Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner will undergo surgery tomorrow to remove an accumulation of blood in her skull following a blow eight weeks ago, according to a statement issued by the hospital where she is being treated.
Fernandez, 60, entered the Favaloro Foundation clinic in Buenos Aires today, two days after her medical team had advised her to rest for a month. Yesterday, the president complained of tingling in her left arm which prompted doctors to recommend the operation, according the statement.
