Multiple sources confirmed to PEOPLE on Saturday that Cyrus had left the hospital following her surgery.
When Cyrus was hospitalized for tonsillitis last month, she discovered a separate issue with her vocal cords, which she had unknowingly had for years, according to sources. After learning of the issue, Cyrus was told she would need to have surgery before the end of the year, and that the recovery process would includeseveral weeks of silence.
As a result of the issue, Cyrus, who has been working on new music, has needed to put recording and performing on hold.
Another source close to Cyrus told PEOPLE she is “doing great and will be back and better than ever early next year.”
