Pope Leo XIV to Undergo Lung Nodule Surgery
Pope Leo XIV confirmed that a lung nodule found early and well localized would require surgery, as advised by doctors. Dr. Bruno Vincenzi explained that nodules can be detected due to symptoms or accidental findings during scans. The operation will likely be minimally invasive, with recovery time depending on the extent of the procedure. Hospitalization will cancel upcoming commitments but not affect a planned trip to South America. More: National Catholic Register
