Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is recovering after undergoing surgery Friday to remove two cancerous growths from her lungs, the Supreme Court said.
Two nodules were found in Ginsburg's left lung during tests taken when she was hospitalized after a fall last month, and they were determined to be malignant, per CNN. She's now "resting comfortably" after the surgery at New York's Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, and doctors say there's no evidence of remaining disease.
