Diego Maradona could be discharged from hospital in Buenos Aires on Thursday, although his personal physician advises the Argentine football legend stay at least until Friday to recover from surgery for a subdural hematoma.
It’s always open with Diego. If he wants to leave, we tried to stop him and convince him with a [medical] check, but he can leave. Let’s hope it stays until tonight, said Dr. Leopoldo Luke in a medical update Thursday. We shouldn’t take him anywhere else. It’s a good postoperative [observation] and we’re seeing good progress. Of course, one out of every two patients will be examined at home, just like any other postoperative patient [observation].
You never know what he’s gonna do to Diego, but I’d advise him to stay until tomorrow. He can go. He talked to me. We have made a great recovery, although he, like everyone else, will have to be watched from home in the future.
On Tuesday, Maradone underwent surgery at Olivos Hospital to remove an accumulation of blood between her brain membranes, which was found in the MRI on Monday.
Luke, the neurosurgeon who did the surgery, said the post-op study looked good.
