On December 8, 2005 His Holiness Serbian Patriarch Pavle was admitted to the Military-Medical Academy in Belgrade, Serbia, after sustaining an injury to his right hip during a fall two days ago in his offices.

Upon admittance a clinical diagnosis determined a fracture in the right pelvic bone which does not require surgery. The general condition of the Patriarch is good and his recovery is in progress.
