Hanson Brother leaves Hospital

Three days after Isaac Hanson's admission to a Dallas hospital and one day after undergoing "lifesaving surgery" to treat a pulmonary embolism, he is back home and expected back on the road as early as Monday.

The operation was performed by Baylor University Medical Center's Dr. Bradley Grimsley, who, according to a posting on the Hanson Website, was "extremely satisfied" with the results of the surgery and expects the eldest of the "MMMBop" brothers to make "a full and swift recovery."

Doctors removed a blood clot that had caused his right arm to swell painfully and prescribed Hanson blood thinners to ward off future clots. Grimsley said that the 26-year-old will need to have a rib removed in the next few months to help open a vein.

Issac Hanson was admitted to the hospital after a show at the local House of Blues, when he was complaining of severe shoulder and chest pains. He was diagnosed with the form of pulmonary embolism known as venous thorasic outlet syndrome, or, more commonly, Paget-Schroeder Syndrome. The condition can lead to potentially fatal blood clots forming in the lungs and it harbors a 40 percent chance of permanent disability if it isn't properly treated.

However, the surgery went so well, Hanson was discharged and is heading back to his hometown of Tulsa, where band mate brothers Taylor, 24, and Zac, 21, are.

Isaac's hospital stay resulted in three canceled shows on the group's nationwide Walk Tour, but the brothers have already rescheduled the missed dates.

As of now, Hanson is expected back on the road Monday, when they will resume their tour in Knoxville.
