Last week, Pope Francis was hospitalized and underwent abdominal surgery. Now a Vatican spokesman announces his release date.
Nine days after his abdominal operation, Pope Francis is said to be able to leave the hospital today. This was announced yesterday by Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni. The 86-year-old’s recovery is proceeding as expected, it said. The various investigations did not produce any conspicuous findings. A day before the discharge date, the head of the Catholic Church also received the surgical team to say thank you.
In addition, current pictures of the Pope were published for the first time after the operation. The Vatican sent three footage showing the pontiff at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital. There Francis had visited the departments of children’s oncology and children’s neurosurgery in the morning. The photos show the Argentine in a wheelchair, which he is now dependent on.
The Pope had been operated on for an impending intestinal obstruction last week. According to the doctors, the procedure, including general anesthesia, was successful and without complications.
