Spanish king will need more hip surgery

None

Spanish King Juan Carlos will need a second hip operation in two months time after undergoing a temporary replacement on Tuesday, his doctors said after surgery they called "a success".

 

The 75-year-old king's fifth procedure in two years has revived speculation that the ailing monarch may be close to abdicating, something denied by the palace. (Reuters)
