Pope Leo diagnosed with lung cancer after surgery | 7NEWS
Pope Leo, 71, has been diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma and has undergone surgery to remove the lower right lobe of his lung at Gemelli Hospital in Rome. The Vatican confirmed the diagnosis following routine checks that detected a nodule, with doctors stating the cancer was caught early and is well localised, giving him an over 80% survival rate. The diagnosis has prompted prayers from Catholics worldwide, including services across Australia, as the Pope faces intense post-operative surveillance to ensure the cancer has not spread to lymph nodes.
