The Vatican announces that the Pope's tumor was localized and does not require any further therapy

The news is a relief for Pope, who was waiting for histological analysis to determine if the surgery had resolved the issue or if further treatment such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy was needed.
