NO OTHER DISEASES FOR POPE SAY SURGEON

(ANSA) - ROME, JUN 7 - The surgeon who operated on Pope Francis for an abdominal hernia Wednesday, after operating on him for a colon issue two years ago, said after the fresh successful op that the pontiff has no other diseases. "The surgery two years ago was for a benign pathology, the diverticular stenosis is benign, the pathology for which he was operated on today is benign and will leave no trace," said Sergio Alfieri. "The hospital stay will be between five and seven days, he is 86 years old and has already undergone four operations. "Give us a few days. Alfieri headed the team that intervened to resolve an abdominal laparocele, or ulcerated hernia that forms over a scar. "He is being looked after by his assistant these days, it's not an emergency situation," added Alfieri. (ANSA).
