Pope Francis will undergo a laparotomy and plastic surgery of the abdominal wall with prostheses. The stay at the health facility will last several days to allow the normal post-operative course and full functional recovery.
The surgeon Alfieri will operate on the Pope, it is the second time. Cardinal Pietro Parolin: "I don't know what to say because I have no elements to say either way" The Pope's car, with tinted windows, arrived directly into the building from a secondary passage, the same used for the previous hospitalization.
