Former prime minister John Howard has been released from hospital.
Mr Howard was admitted to the Royal North Shore last week and underwent surgery on his appendix.
"Mr Howard was discharged over the weekend. He is recuperating at home,"' a spokesman told 9News today.
"He is most grateful for the wonderful attention he received from the surgeons, other medical and nursing staff at the Royal North Shore Hospital."
Mr Howard served as Australia's 25th prime minister between 1996 and 2007 — the second-longest term in office held by a national leader.
He was leader of the Liberal Party from 1985 to 1989 and again from 1995 to 2007.
Governments led by Mr Howard went on to win four consecutive elections before being defeated by Kevin Rudd's Labor Party in 2007.
