Prayers for his Holiness Pope Leo! 🙏

Pope Leo XIV underwent thoracic surgery at Gemelli Hospital on Tuesday afternoon, as planned, according to a statement from Dr. Luigi Carbone and Professor Stefano Margaritora released by the Holy See Press Office.

The surgeons removed the lower lobe of the Pope’s right lung, and tissue examined during the operation confirmed the diagnosis of “lung adenocarcinoma,” as suspected from tests conducted beforehand.

The Pope was in the operating room approximately three hours, while the operation itself lasted about 90 minutes. The doctors said it was successful and there were no complications.

Pope Leo awoke normally after surgery and, following a brief period of observation, returned to his room on the hospital’s 10th floor, according to the statement.

Saint Francis: after a dissolute youth he was converted at Assisi in Umbria and embraced an evangelical life, becoming poor himself to serve Jesus Christ, whom he found most of all in the poor and abandoned. He gathered the Friars Minor around him and preached the love of God to everyone, as he traveled even as far as the Holy Land. He aspired to the perfect following of Christ in word and deed, and wished to die upon the bare earth.

Saint Francis of Assisi, pray for us!
