The surgery was performed on Friday, December 12, reported E! online.
It was a scheduled outpatient procedure, another source said, adding, "She's doing fine."
The 22-year-old singer on Friday posted on her Instagram a photo of herself wearing what appears to be a hospital gown, as well as graphic photos of a surgical procedure.
She also shared several photo-shopped versions of what looks like her wrist with a wound showing raw flesh and held open with surgical instruments. It is unclear if the pictures are authentic.
This is not the first time Cyrus has shared eyebrow-raising pics, including injury photos, on Instagram.
She has in the past posted images that show her bleeding, as well as a slew of naked or other racy photos of herself and a shot of a homemade bong she had crafted from fans' gifts.
