BARCELONA, 28 October (Benin News) –

Sant Joan de Déu d’Eslugues de Llobregat hospital (Barcelona) carried out the first scheduled surgery on Óliver, the two and a half year old Malaga child with a brain tumor, who was transferred from Cancún (Mexico) this week, with a “satisfactory” result.

Sources from the hospital told Europa Press that in this first operation the professionals of the center resolved the hydrocephalus from which the pediatric patient was suffering.

The hospital plans to have a second surgery at the end of next week, though it says it will specify the date at a later time.
