Usher 's wife, Tameka Foster , was released from a Sao Paulo hospital after recovering from a heart attack suffered shortly before undergoing plastic surgery, the Associated Press reports.

A spokeswoman for the Sirio-Libanes Hospital said Wednesday that Foster, 37, left the facility Monday night but declined to provide any details on Foster's treatment.

Ellen Dastry, a spokeswoman for the Silvio Sterman -- the doctor who was to perform the plastic surgery -- said last week that Foster checked into the Sao Rafael hospital on Feb. 6 for a simple liposuction and went into cardiac arrest while being anesthetized "but was revived in less than a minute by heart massage."

She was placed in an induced coma before being taken to the intensive care unit, said Dastry.

She then was transferred to the better-equipped Sirio-Libanes Hospital for recovery.

Usher , 30, cancelled his performance at Clive Davis' pre-Grammy Gala last Saturday to rush to Brazil to be with his wife. His rep told Usmagazine.com Monday that she was in "stable condition after suffering complications from routine surgery."

See what the stars wore to the Grammys.

Foster and Usher wed in August 2007. They are parents to two-month-old Naveid Ely Raymond and Usher Raymond V, 15 months. Foster also has three sons from a prior relationship.
