Supporters celebrate at the news that Argentinian President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner did not have cancer despite being diagnosed with the disease.

Ms Fernandez, 58, returned home after having surgeons remove her thyroid gland last week, but tests showed no presence of any cancerous cells. The announcement drew cheers from hundreds of supporters who had held a vigil for days outside the hospital.
