The University of California says President Janet Napolitano, a former U.S. Homeland Security secretary, is undergoing treatment for cancer and is hospitalized with complications.
  Â
The Office of the President said in a statement Tuesday that Napolitano was diagnosed last August, but it didn't say what type of cancer she has or respond to inquiries seeking further details.
  Â
The 59-year-old previously was treated successfully for breast cancer. The university says the president of the 10-campus system has kept the chairwoman of the UC Board of Regents informed throughout her treatment, which is nearly complete.
  Â
Her office says Napolitano has performed her duties at full capacity during treatment and is expected to be discharged in the next day or so.
  Â
Napolitano was governor of Arizona before joining President Barack Obama's Cabinet.
