The doctor says Bolsonaro does not need surgery, but will continue during observation in RN

Former President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) remains at a private hospital in Natal (RN) because of a RAM for bowel obstructionBut does not require surgery at the moment, reported on Friday (11) the medical director of Rio Grande Hospital, Luiz Roberto Fonseca.

Although clinically stable, Bolsonaro will be subjected to image tests to monitor the development of the condition and exclude the need for a possible surgical intervention.

“Implementing the case remains clinically. That is, there is no evidence of the need for surgery right now,” the doctor said.

The former president was hospitalized after experiencing severe abdominal pain during a political agenda in the interior of Rio Grande do Norte. After emergency care in Santa Cruz, he was transferred from helicopter to Christmas.

This trip was part of the launch of “Rota 22”, a PL project to strengthen the party’s presence in the northeastern, focusing on the articulation to defend amnesty to the prisoners from the swindles on January 8.

According to Fonseca, Bolsonaro abdominal spread caused by a partial obstacle to the intestine, possibly due to the sting she suffered during the 2018 presidential campaign and the several operations performed then – at least five in total.

“Everything that happens to the president in the abdomen will always be related to this section and its surgical consequences,” he explained.

Without a forecast for discharge, the former president is prevented from feeding normally and receiving painkillers to control the pain and using a nasogastric probe. The floor where he is hospitalized was isolated for safety reasons.

The medical team that traditionally follows Bolsonaro in Sao Paulo, including surgeon Antonio Luiz Macedo, monitors the case at a distance and evaluates the possibility of transferring to the state’s capital, if the image requires more specific care.

“Clinically can be removed by air ICU, with medical and nursing follow -up,” Fonseca said.

The result of the situation will depend on the body’s response to clinical treatment in the coming hours and the family decision on possible removal to another condition.
