SALT LAKE CITY - Doctor's have discovered a bone infection and diabetic ulcers on Utah Jazz owner Larry Miller's foot.

Doctors performed outpatient surgery on Miller on Wednesday.

Miller's wife, Gail, says he will undergo six weeks of IV and hyperbaric chamber therapy for the conditions.

Miller, 64, had a heart attack this summer. Complications including kidney failure and gastrointestinal bleeding that required blood transfusions followed, keeping him in the hospital for nearly two months.

A few weeks ago Miller was hospitalized for nine days for dialysis to remove excess water weight.

Gail Miller says her husband's current health problems are all related to diabetes.
