Cardin was flown by helicopter to Marseille on Tuesday from the southern village of Lacoste, where he each year organises a music and theatre festival in a castle he is restoring that was once owned by the Marquis de Sade.
He was last week also briefly hospitalised for a fracture of his shoulder-blade after falling on stairs.
