Pope breaks right wrist in fallPope Benedict XVI has suffered a fall and broken his right wrist while on holiday in northern Italy.
The Vatican said the 82-year-old pontiff had accidentally slipped during the night in his chalet.
However he was able to celebrate Mass in the morning in the alpine town of Aosta, before undergoing surgery to re-align the fractured wrist bones.
A hospital spokesman said the operation had been successful, but the Pope would have to wear a cast for about a month.
He left hospital after an operation under local anaesthetic that lasted about 20 minutes.
The Vatican said it was the first time Pope Benedict had been treated in hospital since his election in 2005.
He insisted on being treated like any other patient and waited his turn for an X-ray, Italy's Ansa news agency says.
He has been staying at a house in the village of Les Combes in the Valle d'Aosta region. It was a favourite vacation spot of his predecessor, Pope John Paul II.
I think it is interesting that both Hitlery Clinton and the Pope both broke their wrists after coming down against Israel on the side of our enemies. I have heard some A7 radio personalities reflect on the possible divine punishment of those who injure Israel and cause death to the Jewish people.
