Host Mirtha Legrand remains hospitalized at the Mater Dei Sanatorium due to a bronchial respiratory condition. In recent hours, details of the tomography study she underwent have emerged, information that was first revealed by journalist Mercedes Ninci.
During the broadcast of “La Mañana con Moria,” Ninci read the corresponding medical report. It details a re-aggravation of a previous inflammatory infectious pathology, which explains the main reason for the hospitalization of the Argentine television diva.
The same study indicates the presence of a 14-millimeter pulmonary nodule and a hamartoma. These findings complete the clinical picture that the medical team is evaluating while the host continues with the prescribed treatment.
Doctor Guillermo Capuya provided clarifications regarding the significance of these findings. He explained that the hamartoma is a benign malformation that the patient has had for some time and requires periodic monitoring, although it does not represent an urgency in itself. The rest of the condition, he stated, corresponds to the current respiratory issue.
The official statement from the sanatorium
Hours after her admission, the Mater Dei Sanatorium issued a statement signed by Doctor Enrique Echague, the medical director of the institution. It confirms that Mirtha Legrand arrived in the morning with a bronchial respiratory condition.
The text clarifies that the host is staying in a regular room with the aim of completing the necessary studies and following the appropriate medical treatment. The family, through the same statement, expressed gratitude for the expressions of affection and respect received during the hospitalization.
The sanatorium also announced that, barring any changes in her condition, a new medical report will be released on Wednesday. That will be the only official channel of communication regarding the patient's health status.
The information has generated a strong impact in the media environment, where Mirtha Legrand has held a central place for decades. The monitoring of her condition remains attentive while the professional team at Mater Dei continues with the evaluations.
What is known so far
So far, available data indicates that the underlying condition is respiratory and that the findings from the tomography help guide both immediate treatment and monitoring of pre-existing lesions. The 14 mm nodule and the hamartoma are listed in the report as elements to be monitored, with no additional complications noted in the official statement.
Mercedes Ninci was the one who made the content of the study public, while the subsequent medical clarifications from Doctor Capuya helped contextualize the significance of each finding. The health institution, for its part, prioritized transparency through a single formal statement.
The host remains hospitalized and under observation. The next medical report, scheduled for Wednesday unless there are updates, will be the next authorized source regarding her progress. Meanwhile, the focus remains on managing the bronchial respiratory condition that prompted her admission and monitoring the already known tomographic findings.
