She remains in an intensive care unit.
"It went very well. The president is in good spirits and is already in her room," said spokesman Alfredo Scoccimarro.
Kirchner was diagnosed over the weekend with a "chronic subdural hematoma" resulting from a blow to the head sustained in a fall in mid-August.
