Bonner surgery not needed
NZPA-AP Boston Yelena Bonner, wife of the Soviet dissident, Andrei Sakharov, did not require surgery to correct her heart problems and would be treated with drugs and ordered to stop smoking, doctors said yesterday. Ms Bonner was said to be resting after undergoing a test known as a coronary catheterisation. Doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital injected dye into her heart through a tube running up a vein to get a better look at her arteries. A cardiologist, Dr Adolph Hutter, said that she would be treated at the hospital as an outpatient for several weeks.
