Pope Leo XIV's Brother Faces Blood Cancer Treatment
Pope Leo XIV's brother, Louis Prevost, is reportedly receiving treatment for blood cancer, according to a source close to the Prevost family. The report comes a day after Pope Leo XIV underwent surgery in Rome, where doctors confirmed he had lung adenocarcinoma, a type of non-small cell lung cancer.
The Lung Cancer Foundation of America identifies lung adenocarcinoma as the most common type of lung cancer, accounting for approximately 40 percent of cases. During the surgery, the lower lobe of Pope Leo's right lung was removed.
The report did not provide further details regarding Louis Prevost's prognosis or the duration of his treatment.
