Zsa Zsa Gabor is back in the hospital again…this time for a life-saving leg amputation surgery.

After being stricken with a barrage of recent health issues, the 93-year-old socialite checked in to the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center Friday morning to have a portion of her right leg removed. 

Gabor was originally being treated for a deep cut in her leg that caused an infection, but unfortunately doctors were not able to spare her leg in the process.

The surgery, however, went well and Gabor is recovering, according to USA Today.
