According to Vatican spokesman, Matteo Bruni, the recent operation went really well and further updates would be released later.

Dr. Sergio Alfieri, director of abdominal and endocrine sciences at Rome’s Gemelli hospital added that Wednesday’s operation was successful, and there were no complications or other pathologies discovered.
