The Holy See Press Office has confirmed that Pope Leo XIV’s surgery to remove a small, localised nodule from his lung has been completed successfully. The procedure was completed within the expected timeframe and as planned, and the Holy Father has now returned to his room at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital. Further information will be provided by the Holy See in due course. We continue to keep Pope Leo in our prayers as he recovers. 🙏🏻
