Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, 85, fell in her office at the court and fractured three ribs, according to a release from the court Thursday.
"She went home, but after experiencing discomfort overnight, went to George Washington University Hospital early this morning," the statement said. "Tests showed that she fractured three ribs on her left side and she was admitted for observation and treatment."
Ginsburg's health has been a matter of intense speculation in recent years. Ginsburg, the court's oldest member, is one of the court's four liberal justices. She has survived multiple bouts with cancer, and in 2014 underwent a procedure to have a stent placed in her right coronary artery.
The court said that more information would be provided as it became available.
It is not the first time that Ginsburg has fractured her ribs while on the court. In June 2012, Ginsburg fractured two ribs in a fall and did not disclose the incident to the public until months later.

Time to retire. Past time to retire.
She has to be the longest survivor of pancreatic cancer that I've ever heard of.
Put a fork in it . !!!!!
RGH is being removed due to a scandal?
If Ginsberg has pancreatic cancer, she would have been dead within a year of diagnosis. (Steve Jobs had a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that allowed him to live so long.)
Very painful. I bruised three ribs and sneezing was very painful, I dreaded every achoo.
the guy with a bunch of apartment complexes?
SOON.
From what I read she had it a long time ago and was supposedly cured of it. Normally pancreatic cancer takes quickly.
Trump to his aide: “Get me Amy Barrett on the phone”
Trump tripped here.
(Watch. Some vile leftists will blame Trump. Unlike me, they will mean it.)
I hope she hasnt caught Lockleg from Hillary.
i don’t wish any pain on her, but she has surely caused many people much pain.
How awful! She should take a permanent vacation.
This sets President Trump soon become the greatest US President in modern history
Hmmmm? Will they hold up the movie to include a final chapter? There goes her hopes to move to New Zealand. Ruthie is a fighter, she may be back. I don’t see JMHS draped in black yet.
I don’t think she fell. She coughed.
I agree. You won’t get any argument from me.
You believe her pancreatic cancer in 2009 is fake?
