Doctors removed cancerous growths from Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's left lung on Friday.

She underwent surgery at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York Center. The growths were discovered after she fell in November, according to a press release from the U.S. Supreme Court.

"Post-surgery, there was no evidence of any remaining disease," the release said.

There are no plans for additional treatment at this time, according to the statement.
