Nobel laureate Desmond Tutu was readmitted to a South African hospital on Saturday, just days after he left following three weeks of treatment there.
The 84-year-old retired archbishop returned to the hospital "as a precaution after his surgical wound had shown signs of infection," a family statement quoted Tutu's wife, Leah, as saying.
Tutu "underwent the surgical procedure 10 days ago to address the cause of recurring infections resulting from past treatment received for prostate cancer," the statement said.
Tutu, who has been treated for prostate cancer for many years, was also hospitalized several times last year. His family has previously said that the cancer is under control.
He was an outspoken opponent of apartheid, South Africa's former system of white minority rule, and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984.

United States of America President Barack Obama has scheduled meetings with the leaders of Iraq, Nigeria and Colombia and plans to promote trade between the U.S. and Africa, as he continues his efforts to defeat the Islamic State group, the white house said Friday.
Obama plans to sit down Monday with Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi to discuss progress the country has made countering the Islamic State group, a coming Iraqi military operation to take back the city of Mosul from IS militants, and a brewing humanitarian crisis inside Iraq, said Ben Rhodes, Obama's deputy national security adviser.
Deputy Secretary of State Antony Blinken said this week while visiting Baghdad that Iraqi forces aided by the U.S.-led coalition against IS had retaken half the territory that militants once held in the country. He also announced more than $181 million in aid to address a humanitarian crisis that has festered in Iraq as a result of the insurgency. Despite a series of major defeats in recent months, IS has maintained its grip on Mosul, Iraq's second largest city.
Meanwhile, North Korea continues to defy the international community with its recent nuclear and ballistic missile tests.
Obama also plans to meet Tuesday with Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, to talk about continued U.S. support for security and economic changes in the country, as well the government's efforts to counter the Islamic extremist group Boko Haram. At a summit on refugees that the president is hosting, Obama is expected to press more nations to open their borders and help double the number of refugees who are resettled around the world.
Obama will devote a portion of Wednesday, the final day of the General Assembly session, to promoting trade between the U.S. and Africa.

A large piece of aircraft debris discovered on an island off the coast of East Africa in June was from missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, an official announced Thursday.
A search stretching more than two years has turned up few traces of the Boeing 777 that disappeared in March 2014 with 239 passengers and crew on board. The outboard flap found on Pemba Island, off the coast of Tanzania, will be examined further to see if it can yield any insight into the circumstances around the fate of the jet, Malaysian Transport Minister Liow Tiong Lai said in a statement.
Australian and Malaysian officials examine aircraft debris that was found on Pemba Island at the Australian Transport Safety Bureau headquarters in Canberra on July 20.
