Pope Francis in hospital for 'scheduled surgery' on colon - Vatican spokesman
Pope Francis was admitted to a Rome hospital on Sunday afternoon for "scheduled surgery" on his colon, Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni said.

Bruni said the pope, 84, was suffering from "symptomatic diverticular stenosis" of the colon.

It was not clear when the surgery would take place but Bruni said another statement would be issued afterwards.
