World4 sources4 countries31m ago
Pope Leo XIV underwent successful thoracic surgery on Tuesday at Rome's Gemelli Hospital to remove a cancerous tumor from his right lung. Doctors confirmed the diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma, a form of cancer that develops in glandular cells, and successfully removed the lower lobe of his right lung.
The Vatican stated that the pontiff will undergo additional testing following the procedure. The operation occurred after the Pope previously noted that a nodule had been detected at a very early stage.
