Pope Leo XIV, age 71, underwent lung surgery on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, at Gemelli Hospital in Rome to remove a cancerous nodule from his right lung lower lobe 13. The Vatican confirmed that the pontiff was subsequently diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma 36. The procedure, which lasted approximately seven hours, proceeded as planned and concluded successfully 13. Medical experts assessed the cancer as an early-stage discovery with a favorable prognosis and lower surgical risk 235.

Following the operation, the Pope is recovering normally and is expected to require approximately one week of recuperation 13. The Vatican stated that the surgery "was completed as scheduled within the expected timeframe" 3. All papal activities have been cancelled through October 20, though the pontiff's planned visit to South America in November may still proceed 13. The Pope publicly disclosed his health condition to thousands of faithful on the preceding Sunday 3. This public disclosure of medical details reflects a significant shift in the Vatican's transparency regarding papal health matters compared to previous administrations 13.
