In October, Jean-Pierre Pernaut had given reassuring news of his health, filming himself in a sunny garden, all smiles. "We are 70 000 every year to be operated on for prostate cancer in France, that's why I talked about it," added the convalescent.

Prostate cancer ranks first for men among the most common tumors, according to the site of Public Health France.
