Pope Leo's lung nodule surgery completed successfully, Vatican says

What the coverage shows

The outlets converge on the Vatican saying Pope Leo had lung surgery and was recovering afterward, with CBS News carrying the earliest surgery reports and later updates on diagnosis and recovery. CBS News repeatedly foregrounds Vatican statements and adds broader response coverage, while NBC News emphasizes the pope’s age, the hospital plan, and later notes that recovery may take longer than expected. NPR is the only outlet here to say outright that he was diagnosed with lung cancer, and PBS NewsHour alone adds that the condition is common and often highly treatable when found early.
