Overview
- On Monday evening, family members called surgeon Cláudio Birolini to Bolsonaro’s Brasília residence after a bout of intense hiccups with four episodes of vomiting.
- Carlos Bolsonaro said the episode was the most intense so far and asked followers to pray as the doctor headed to the house to assess his father.
- After an at‑home evaluation, the medical team reported improvement and said a hospital transfer was unnecessary, and later Carlos stated the crisis had passed.
- Bolsonaro remains under house arrest after a Supreme Federal Court conviction, and his recent care has included outpatient follow‑up following skin‑lesion removals.
- Two weeks earlier, he was hospitalized with vomiting, dizziness and low blood pressure, and pathology later identified two skin lesions as squamous cell carcinoma in situ.
