The coronary-artery bypass surgery was aimed to improve the life quality for the 78-year-old emperor, according to his doctors.
The surgery was conducted by a team of doctors from the University of Tokyo Hospital and Juntendo University Hospital. The emperor entered the hospital on Friday morning and is expected to be able to leave hospital in two weeks.
The emperor was earlier diagnosed with angina after an angiogram performed last Saturday.
