ternary-operator

In PHP, is there a way to simplify this even more, without using an if()?

$foo = $bar!==0 ? $foo : '';

I was wondering if there was a way to not reassign $foo to itself if the condition is satisfied. I understand there is a way to do this in Javascript (using &&, right?), but was wondering if there was a way to do this in PHP.
