Los Angeles: US actor Partrick Swayze is resting at home after being released from hospital, his publicist said.
Swayze spent one week in the hospital for observation after falling sick with pneumonia.
His publicisit, Annett Wolf, would not comment further on his condition.
Last March, the 56-year-old actor said he was suffering from pancreatic cancer. His doctor said his situation was more optimistic.
Swayze told ABC's Barbara Walters last week that his battle with cancer put him "through hell" while he pushed ahead on a new TV series The Beast.
