SAO PAULO (Reuters) – Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who sustained a head injury last month, underwent imaging tests on Sunday in Brasilia, with the medical report saying his condition has remained stable.
Lula can perform his usual activities, and his situation will be reassessed in a week, the report issued by the Sirio-Libanes Hospital in Brasilia showed.
In late October, Lula fell at home and suffered a small brain hemorrhage and trauma to the back of his head that required stitches, his personal doctor Roberto Kalil has said.
The Brazilian leader has been working from the Presidential Palace but canceled international travel, including to the upcoming Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation leaders’ forum in Lima and United Nations summit COP29 in Azerbaijan.
