VATICAN, Oct 18 — Pope Leo XIV was discharged from Rome’s Agostino Gemelli Hospital on Saturday following lung surgery earlier in the week, with doctors confirming that his condition had improved sufficiently for him to continue recovering at the Vatican.
The Holy See Press Office said the Pope left the hospital on Saturday afternoon after undergoing medical assessments, including blood tests and a chest X-ray, which confirmed he was fit to be discharged.
Before leaving, Leo thanked the medical team that had treated him, including Professor Stefano Margaritora, who performed the surgery.
