Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg Undergoes Surgery for Pancreatic Cancer

Justice Ruther Bader Ginsburg underwent surgery Thursday for early stage pancreatic cancer. Justice Ginsburg, the only woman on the Supreme Court, discovered she had cancer during a routine checkup in January.

“Justice Ginsburg had no symptoms prior to the incidental discovery of the lesion during a routine annual checkup in late January at the National Institute of Health in Bethesda, Maryland,” the court said in a statement.

A CAT scan “revealed a small tumor, approximately one centimeter across, in the center of the pancreas.”

Ginsburg, 75, has had two bouts of cancer since President Bill Clinton appointed her to the Supreme Court in 1993. She is currently at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. She will remain there for seven to ten days.
