Italy's prime minister Paolo Gentiloni on Monday held a meeting with economy minister Pier Carlo Padoan less than a week after he had emergency heart surgery block to unblock an artery.
Gentiloni was discharged from Rome's Policlinico Gemelli hospital on Saturday after his angioplasty procedure and chaired a cabinet meeting in Rome the same day.
Hospital doctors said Tuesday's operation had been a complete success and Gentiloni tweeted on Wednesday that he felt "very well".
The 62-year-old premier was admitted to hospital on Tuesday after he complained of discomfort on his return to Rome from an official visit to Paris.
Gentiloni was appointed premier last month when Matteo Renzi resigned after a crushing defeat on planned constitutional reforms his centre-left government claimed would streamline Italy's lawmaking.
Gentiloni was foreign minister in Renzi's almost 22-month-long government.
