Pope Leo's lung nodule surgery completed successfully, Vatican says

Pope Leo XIV underwent a successful surgery Tuesday to remove a lung nodule, according to the Vatican. "The procedure was completed successfully, within the expected timeframe and as planned, and the Holy Father has returned to his room," the Holy See Press Office said. The office promised further information at a later time. The 71-year-old Leo had walked into Rome's Gemelli hospital through the main entrance earlier Tuesday and waved to dozens of well-wishers who had gathered to greet him. The Vatican said the surgery would be performed by a team led by Gemelli's chief thoracic surgeon, Dr. Stefano Margaritora.
