Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has successfully undergone a second surgical procedure, following an emergency operation earlier this week to alleviate bleeding in his skull. According to his medical team, this latest operation was a success.

Lula's personal doctor, Roberto Kalil Filho, confirmed that the president, 79, is awake and communicating. Lula will remain in intensive care at Sao Paulo's Sirio-Libanes Hospital and could be discharged early next week to resume his duties.

The surgeries were necessary following a fall at the president's home in late October. The second procedure aimed to minimize future bleeding risks with a middle meningeal artery embolization. Neurologist Rogerio Tuma highlighted the preventive aspect of this operation, significantly reducing the potential for future complications.
