An aide says the Palestinian president has successfully undergone an angioplasty at a Jordanian hospital.
Spokesman Nabil Abu Rdeneh says Mahmoud Abbas underwent the procedure on Thursday and will return to the West Bank on Friday. He says a doctor recommended the procedure during a routine medical examination Thursday.
Abu Rdeneh spoke with The Associated Press from the Jordanian capital, Amman.
Abbas is Israel's negotiating partner in recently revived peace talks.
An angioplasty is a procedure to treat obstructed blood vessels, a cause of heart attack.
