Serena Williams recently revealed that she underwent surgery to remove a benign branchial cyst from her neck, describing it as being 'the size of a small grapefruit.' The retired tennis star shared on social media that she first noticed a lump on her neck in May and underwent an MRI exam. Initially advised that the cyst did not require removal, Williams opted to monitor it. However, as the lump continued to grow, further tests were conducted, including a biopsy that confirmed the absence of cancer.
Following her doctors' recommendation, Williams decided to proceed with a procedure to remove the cyst. She posted a video from her hospital bed, expressing gratitude for the successful outcome and emphasizing the importance of prioritizing health. While still in the recovery phase, she reassured her followers that she is on the mend and focused on her well-being.
