Pope Leo XIV has announced he will be operated “in the coming days” after a lump was found on his lung during a medical check up.
“The doctors found an early, well-localised nodule on my lung,” he told the public during his weekly Sunday prayers in St Peter’s Square in Rome.
The 71-year-old pontiff said his medical team “believe it would be right to intervene” and he had agreed to the operation.
