Queen Elizabeth II's 90-year-old husband is making "good progress," but will remain under observation at Papworth, a specialist heart hospital in Cambridge, a Buckingham Palace spokesman said Monday.
Philip underwent a successful coronary stent procedure at the specialist hospital, where he was taken Friday after complaining of chest pains.
"The Duke of Edinburgh continues to make good progress from the procedure. He remains in hospital under observation and in good spirits," the spokesman said.
It was the most serious health scare suffered by Philip, who is known to be active and robust. He has continued to appear at many engagements, most recently taking a 10-day tour of Australia with the queen.
He missed the Royal Family's traditional Boxing Day shooting party on Monday at the queen's private Sandringham estate in Norfolk, an event he usually leads.

57 minutes ago( 2:03 PM) I hope he is able to come through just fine, the pain of this, for any of us concerning one we love, is never easy, and within us all, is enough heart to wish for his speedy recovery, and my best to his family.
1 hour ago( 1:32 PM) The royals all live to a thousand years old so he'll probably come out of it bright eyed and bushy tailed. It must be the good life they all lead because they seem to go on forever and when death claims them it's usually very kind, dying of old age in their beds like the queen mother.
2 hours ago( 1:06 PM) I would extend my stay as well if it meant getting away from that wretched family, all the spolied brats, and media wh*ores.
Imagine a whole day in the company of that smug, elephant-eared snake oil salesman (with his fat @rsed ho shrieking in the background).
2 hours ago(12:51 PM) 4 years ago I had stents put in for a blockage and was in hospital for 6 days ----- I was 55 he's 90! I'm sure he might need a slightly longer recovery!
2 hours ago( 1:12 PM) The only reason he hasn't been kicked out is because he is 'royal'; we treat our elderly disgracefully here in the UK (in terms of medical care).
