# No further treatments needed after lung surgery

A statement released on the evening of October 21 indicated that no additional therapies are required following the lung surgery of a church leader. The personal physician and surgeon confirmed that the postoperative recovery proceeded without complications after the removal of a tissue mass.

In recent days, the church leader had already resumed initial work activities in the hospital. Thus, the medical follow-up is limited to normal recovery after the surgery.
