Fausto Silva leaves the ICU and is transferred

After more than three months of hospitalization at the Albert Einstein hospital in San Paolo, the presenter Fausto Silva showed consistent recovery signs. Maggio Hospital from May due to an acute bacterial infection with sepsis, Faustão left the intensive care unit (ICU) and was transferred to a quarter last Wednesday (13 August), according to the update published on Monday (18 August).




The change in the sector represents a significant advance in the treatment of the communicator at 75 years of age. At the beginning of August, he underwent a liver transplant, accompanied by a renal retortsplant, a procedure that had already been planned about a year ago. Previously, in August 2023, the presenter had undergone a heart transplant due to cardiac insufficiency diagnosed weeks earlier.

According to the newsletter issued by the medical team, Faustão continues the physical and nutritional rehabilitation process. “The patient Fausto Silva remains hospitalized in the hospital in Einstein Israelita. He was discharged from the intensive care unit last Wednesday 13 August and is in an apartment. He has a progressive improvement in the functions of the transplanted bodies and is still under physical and nutritional rehabilitation.”

The medical information was signed by a team of cardiologists, nephrologists and transplant specialists, strengthening the fact that the current clinical condition is stable and with a positive evolution. In fact, from the first procedures, the bulletins underlined the favorable response of their body to surgery.

In an interview with Fantástico the previous year, Faustão himself commented on his condition and highlighted the treatments he adopted after heart transplantation. “I have never smoked in my life. I have never drunk. I don’t drink or liqueur. It’s not a beer. I have never used drugs. And I fell in the fine shirt and I had to make a heart transplant. What happens? The heart of a 35 -year -old athlete. And now you have to take care of the lantern, the body shop, physical therapy, gymnastics.

The presenter had already returned to the hospital five months after the first transplant to keep dialysis sessions. Since then, his treatment has led to several steps, always carefully monitored by his medical and family team.

Prolonged hospital hospitalization has requested careful planning for sequence surgical interventions, focusing on the full recovery of liver, kidney and cardiac functions. Although it remains hospitalized, the release of intensive care is undoubtedly a milestone in the communicator’s restoration process.
