Zsa Zsa Gabor back in LA hospital for leg surgery

[January 03, 2011]  LOS ANGELES (AP) -- A representative for Zsa Zsa Gabor says she is back in a Los Angeles hospital to have part of her leg amputated.

Publicist John Blanchette says doctors examined a growing lesion on Gabor's leg Sunday and decided she needed to return to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center for surgery.

The 93-year-old Hungarian-born actress broke her hip in July and has been hospitalized several times since. She asked for a priest to read her last rites in August.
