On Monday it was said that Queen Margrethe had been hospitalized and was to be so for “a number of days”.
Queen Margrethe is still admitted to Rigshospitalet on the fourth day after a blood collection in the hip region.
Asked on Thursday whether the queen is still hospitalized and her condition, the royal house refers to a press release from Monday.
Here it was said that she is doing well under the circumstances and that she would remain hospitalized for a “number of days”.
The Queen was admitted to hospital for treatment after a CT scan showed a large pool of blood in the hip region. The blood collection was due to a previous fall.
Recently had balloon dilation
The admission took place less than a week after the 86-year-old queen had been discharged from the National Hospital after six days of hospitalization.
Here she was hospitalized after a heart attack and a balloon expansion of the heart’s coronary artery.
In the past, when the queen has been hospitalized, the royal house has announced in a press release when she has been discharged again or when there have been significant changes.
A blood clot occurs when the blood comes out of the blood vessels. It can be in connection with a blow or a stab.
This was explained by senior physician for the Department of Heart, Lung and Vascular Surgery at Odense University Hospital Cengiz Akgül to Ritzau on Wednesday.
He does not comment on the Queen’s condition, but spoke in general about blood collections and their possible consequences.
Was also hospitalized in 2024 and 2025
Throughout her 86-year-long life, Queen Margrethe has been in contact with the Danish healthcare system several times.
In addition to the two recent hospitalizations, she was also hospitalized for observation due to a cold in 2025 and hospitalized for observation after a fall in 2024.
