The 55-year-old Mandelson, named “first secretary of state” by Brown in June, is expected to stay overnight in St. Mary’s Hospital in London, according to a statement from his office. The operation had been long-planned and was for a benign condition, the statement said. It’s the second time in less than a year that Mandelson has been admitted to the hospital. In October, just after Brown brought him back into the British government from hi
s job as European Union trade commissioner, he was rushed to St. Mary’s for a kidney-stone operation. Mandelson, who quit the House of Commons in 2004 to take up his EU post, was appointed to the upper, unelected House of Lords to enable him to rejoin the government and is known as Lord Mandelson. First secretary is an honorific title that carries no formal responsibilities. It was last held by John Prescott, who was deputy prime minister under Tony Blair. In the past few weeks, journalists have asked Mandelson several times whether he was interested in succeeding Brown as Labour Party leader, after the government announced legislation that would allow appointed lords to renounce their peerages and stand for the Commons. Bookmaker Ladbrokes Plc has him as sixth favorite to succeed Brown. St. Mary’s Hospital today referred enquiries to the Department for Business. The prostate, which is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system, is located just below the bladder, where urine is stored, and surrounds the urethra, where urine passes from the body. During puberty, a man’s prostate doubles in size. The gland starts to grow again at around age 25, and years later the growth can pressure the urethra, causing frequent urination and limiting the bladder’s ability to empty completely.
