BREAKING 🚨: Pope Leo XIV has undergone successful surgery to remove a small growth from one of his lungs, with the procedure completed as planned, the Vatican has confirmed.
The update came around seven hours after the 70-year-old pontiff was admitted to Rome’s Gemelli hospital for treatment.
The operation was carried out to remove a small lung nodule, which the Pope revealed on Sunday had been detected at an early stage during a recent medical check-up.
Well-wishers were seen greeting the pontiff as he arrived at the hospital, with some shouting “auguri”, meaning best wishes in Italian.
Pope Leo departed the Vatican shortly before 1pm local time before arriving at the hospital, where he shook hands with several officials.
