| Hillary Clinton to have surgery on broken elbow

| Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton expects to have surgery soon to repair a broken elbow suffered at the State Department headquarters, her spokesman said on Friday.
PJ Crowley told reporters that no date for the surgery has been set, but it probably would be "in the coming week."
He said Clinton was working from home today and had made no decision whether to go ahead with planned overseas travel, including a scheduled trip next week to Italy and Greece.
Crowley said Clinton was walking toward her official vehicle in the State Department's basement garage when she fell and fractured her right elbow. He said she was with Richard Holbrooke, the administration's coordinator of policy on Afghanistan and Pakistan, at the time; they were headed to a meeting at the White House.
After the fall, Clinton returned to her office to be examined and was taken to The George Washington University Hospital, a few blocks away, where her right elbow was X-rayed, Crowley said. He said he did not know the extent of the injury but did not think it was a severe fracture.
