Rep. Steve Scalise has undergone another surgery after being readmitted to an intensive care unit Wednesday because of concerns for infection.
Scalise was readmitted to the ICU the day before « due to new concerns for infection, » according to a statement from his office Wednesday.
The Republican House Majority Whip was originally released from the intensive care unit on June 22 after undergoing multiple surgeries.
Scalise sustained a single gunshot wound to the hip in the June 14 attack at a Republican congressional baseball practice.
« The bullet traveled across his pelvis, fracturing bones, injuring internal organs, and causing severe bleeding, » MedStar said in a statement last month put out by Scalise’s office.
