BRAZIL'S ex-president Jair Bolsonaro underwent a successful intestinal surgery in Brasilia on Sunday, his wife said, going through a marathon operation after being hospitalSed for "unbearable" pain linked to a 2018 stabbing attack.
-
The 70-year-old underwent laparotomy a procedure involving an incision through the abdominal wall - "to treat intestinal adhesions and reconstitute the abdominal wall," said a statement from the DF Star hospital where he was being treated.
"Operation finished with success!" Michelle Bolsonaro, the former leader's wife, wrote on Instagram on Sunday evening, more than 11 hours after the procedure began.
She thanked those who had prayed for her husband.
"This major operation lasted twelve hours and went smoothly, without the need for a blood transfusion," said a medical bulletin from the hospital.
It added that Bolsonaro was in "stable" condition and he was in "no pain" as he began recovery in the intensive care unit.
Earlier in the day, about a dozen supporters had gathered outside the hospital, waiting for news.
