Queen Louise has operation

March 4, 1965

Queen Louise of Sweden, 75, underwent emergency surgery today for thrombosis. The six-hour surgery was to alleviate a "circulation deficiency." The queen, who is in frail health and suffers from a heart condition, was reported to be in "serious but relatively satisfactory" condition. She was rushed to the hospital from Drottningholm Palace, 12 miles outside Stockholm.
Her husband, King Gustav VI Adolf, 82, and other members of the Swedish royal family, are at the hospital.
