Doctors pronounce Brazil's former President Lula cancer-free

None

Brazil's popular former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva was pronounced healthy by a team of doctors at Sao Paulo's Sírio-Libanês hospital after routine exams on Saturday.

 

The doctors said Lula had asked them to give a news conference after the exams to respond to rumors the former president had suffered a cancer recurrence. Lula was diagnosed with throat cancer in 2011 and said he was cured of the disease in March of 2012. (Reuters)
