King Leka, 72, was taken to intensive care two days ago, hospital officials said Thursday, adding he is under stable conditions.
King Leka, the only son of the late King Ahmet Zog who declared himself king in 1928 and ruled until the Italian army invaded the country in 1939, returned to Albania in 2002.
Albania's communist rulers abolished the monarchy in 1946, but even in exile, the royal family insisted that Leka Zogu was Albania's legitimate ruler.
The country's president and prime minister visited Leka at the hospital.
