Overview
- Doctors reported the bilateral inguinal repair lasted about three and a half hours under general anesthesia and that Bolsonaro awoke and returned to his room without complications.
- The open herniorrhaphy with polypropylene mesh was performed on both sides of the groin, with an expected hospital stay of five to seven days and no discharge date set.
- The Federal Police maintain 24‑hour custody with at least two agents at the door, discreet transport, an isolated room, and a ban on personal electronic devices in the room.
- Michelle Bolsonaro was cleared to accompany him, and Minister Alexandre de Moraes later allowed visits by his children under hospital rules while device restrictions remain in force.
- A phrenic‑nerve block to address persistent hiccups was not performed and will be reconsidered in the coming days based on his postoperative course.
