Brazilian President Lula Da Silva Undergoes Successful Brain Surgery After October Fall

By -

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva successfully underwent surgery in São Paulo to address a brain hemorrhage linked to a fall at home in October, according to a government medical note released on Tuesday, December 10.

The 79-year-old leader is reportedly “well” and is being closely monitored in the intensive care unit following the procedure. Doctors are set to provide further updates during a press conference scheduled for 9 a.m. local time.

Lula had an MRI scan on Monday night in Brasília after experiencing a severe headache, which revealed an intracranial hemorrhage. He was swiftly transferred to São Paulo’s renowned Sírio-Libanês Hospital for surgery.

The incident traces back to late October when Lula fell at home, sustaining a minor brain hemorrhage and trauma to the back of his head, which required stitches. Follow-up tests in early November confirmed that his condition had remained stable until this recent development.

As a precaution, Lula canceled plans to attend the BRICS summit in Kazan, Russia, on medical advice to avoid long-haul flights.

Lula’s successful recovery is seen as a relief to Brazilians, who are closely watching the health of their longstanding political figure.

Key Facts Our breakdown records 76 billionaires supporting Harris and 49 backing Trump so far (see the lists for both below). Many more billionaires may still financially back a candidate, but their donations won’t be learned until after the election, when final Federal Election Commission reports are issued in December. Billionaires leaning toward Harris may seem incongruous, since she often criticizes Trump for advocating for policies favorable toward billionaires—but there are practical reasons why the ultra wealthy may favor Harris. A  letter  signed by more than a dozen billionai...
