CHICAGO — Former 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.
The Hill's Mychael Schnell on X Saturday said a source told her the cause of the injury was a fall on the stairs.
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. She stepped down from leadership before the most recent Congress began in 2022.
