Vatican Officials Reveals New Medical Report Of Pope Francis
Pope Francis is reportedly recovering well after undergoing abdominal surgery.
The Vatican officials had given the report.
According to a further report, the pontiff recently underwent a laparotomy and received abdominal wall plastic surgery to the surprise and concern of Catholics around the world.
“The medical team reports that the clinical picture is progressively improving, and the post-operative course is regular,” Director of the Vatican Press Office Matteo Bruni told the media on Friday.
Francis, 86, underwent a three-hour operation at Rome’s Gemelli hospital on Wednesday, June 7, to repair a hernia, which doctors said was successful enough that he should have no limitations on his travels and other activities after he recovers.
After breakfast, His Holiness began to move about, spending most of the morning in an armchair,” Bruni said Friday. “This allowed him to read the newspapers and start work again.
“Dr. Sergio Alfieri, director of abdominal and endocrine sciences at Gemelli hospital, said in a press conference that the Pope woke up in good spirits and was even joking.
“When will we do the third one?” Alfieri said, quoting the Pope.
