On Monday, Lula underwent an MRI in Brasilia after suffering a headache before it was confirmed that he needed to undergo the surgery at the Sirio Libanes hospital.
In October Lula fell at his home where he sustained a brain hemorrhage and trauma with tests conducted at the time revealing that he was in a stable condition.
Following doctor’s advise, he was forced to cancel his planned trip to Russia for the BRICS meeting to discuss emerging markets.
