Pope to leave hospital after lung cancer surgery
Pope Leo XIV is being released from the hospital, four days after lung cancer surgery, the Vatican says.
The 71-year-old Leo had the lower lobe of his right lung removed after doctors identified a suspected cancerous nodule.
The surgery confirmed he had adenocarcinoma, the most common type of lung cancer.
Leo will also deliver the traditional Sunday blessing from a window overlooking St Peter's Square on Sunday, one week after he announced to the crowd that a nodule had been discovered in his lung.
