The Vatican said the pontiff will lead the Angelus from the Vatican as usual on Sunday.
Doctors have cleared Pope Leo XIV to leave the hospital; he will return to the Vatican on Saturday afternoon, according to the Vatican.
The pope's personal physician Dr. Luigi Carbone and surgeon Dr. Stefano Margaritora said Oct. 17 that "based on the blood tests and chest X-ray performed this morning, and after evaluating his clinical condition, the Holy Father has been deemed fit to be discharged."
The Vatican also announced that Leo would celebrate Mass at the hospital on Saturday before being discharged, and lead his Angelus at the Vatican on Sunday.
Leo announced during his Sunday Angelus on Oct. 11 that he would undergo surgery to remove a lung nodule. Doctors confirmed a diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma after his surgery at Rome's Gemelli Hospital on Oct. 13.
Since his surgery and hospitalization, doctors and the Vatican have confirmed that the pontiff's postoperative recovery is "progressing normally." On Friday, the Vatican released photos of the pope celebrating Mass at the hospital, the first photos since his hospitalization.
