Pope Leo to Undergo Lung Nodule Surgery Following Routine Checkup
Pope Leo, 71, has announced plans to enter Rome's Gemelli hospital on Tuesday for surgery to remove a small lung nodule discovered during a routine checkup. The Pope, who was elected by cardinals in May 2025, stated the growth was 'well-contained' and detected early, minimizing health concerns. The Vatican press office confirmed he would leave the Vatican for the hospital late morning, though the exact surgery date remains unspecified. This marks the first significant health issue during his 17-month papacy. The Pope, known for his active lifestyle including tennis, has no history of smoking or prior health complications. Vatican officials anticipate a one-week recovery period, canceling all public events until October 20. Medical experts note that lung nodules are often benign, with less than 5% proving cancerous, and procedures to remove them are typically minimally invasive using thoracoscopy. Dr. Federico Venuto, chief of thoracic surgery at Rome's Policlinico Umberto I hospital, emphasized the low complication rate associated with such operations. The Pope's predecessor, Pope Francis, died at 88 in April 2025 after multiple hospitalizations. Despite his health plans, Pope Leo confirmed he will proceed with an 11-day tour of Uruguay, Argentina, and Peru from November 6 to 17, stating he would 'go forward with the trip' during his Sunday announcement. The Vatican has maintained a firm stance on transparency regarding the Pope's health, providing clear details about the procedure and expected recovery timeline.
