Lula da Silva to Undergo Low-Risk Surgery to Prevent Intracranial Hemorrhage

Brazil’s president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, is in a satisfactory recovery process in the intensive care unit of the Syrian-Lebanese Hospital in São Paulo after undergoing a second surgery to treat a hemorrhage in his head.

This intervention, performed on Thursday, was necessary after the president suffered a bruise as a result of a fall at his official residence on October 19.

The medical bulletin issued by the hospital highlights that Lula, at age 79, remains lucid and oriented, which is a positive sign in his recovery. He talks normally, eats well, and has had family visits, reflecting a critical emotional support environment during these challenging times.

The rapid medical response and specialized care that Lula has received is a testament to the Brazilian health system and the commitment of the professionals who serve it.

In less than a week since his fall, the president has undergone two surgical interventions, highlighting not only the severity of the incident but also the effectiveness of the treatment he has received.

Lula is expected to be moved to a regular room soon and discharged between Monday and Tuesday of next week.

This optimistic forecast is not only a relief for his supporters but also represents an important milestone in his mandate, especially at a time when Brazil faces significant social and economic challenges.
