Benign—ibig sabihin ay hindi cancerous—ang nakuhang bukol sa kidney ng singer-actress na si Zsa Zsa Padilla.

Ito ang ibinalita ng Divine Diva sa kanyang personal Twitter account kahapon, August 29.

Sumailalim sa operasyon si Zsa Zsa sa Cedars-Sinai Medical Center sa Los Angeles, California noong Lunes, August 27 (U.S. time).

Ito ay isinagawa upang tanggalin ang mala-golf ball na bukol sa kanyang bato, matapos siyang ma-diagnose ng Stage 1 kidney cancer.

Dalawang araw pagkatapos ng operasyon ay nag-tweet si Zsa Zsa upang ipaalam ang magandang balitang ito:

"My doctors woke me up from my nap to say that pathology got back to them and the tumor taken out was benign! I am overjoyed with the news!"

Pagkatapos nito ay nagpaabot ng pasasalamat si Zsa Zsa sa mga bumati at nagdasal para sa kanya.

"Good morning from LA. I will check out this morning. Still overwhelmed with joy about the good news. Thank you all for your messages of love and support. God is good, all the time. ♡"

Kabilang sa mga pinasalamatan niya sa Twitter ay sina Sharon Cuneta, Gary Valenciano, Aiza Seguerra, at Direk Andoy Ranay.

Hindi rin nakaligtaan ni Zsa Zsa na paalalahanan ang kanyang mga kaibigan at followers na manood ng kanyang pelikula, ang I Do Bidoo Bidoo, na nagbukas sa mga sinehan kahapon.

Hindi nakadalo si Zsa Zsa sa premiere at advance screenings ng pelikulang pinagbibidahan nila nina Gary, Ogie Alcasid, at Eugene Domingo, dahil nasa Amerika nga siya para sa kanyang operasyon.

    bakit kasi nag balita o nag pasabi na may cancer sya, Stage 1. Biopsy lang ang makakapagsabi kung cancer nga o hindi. Maaring may mass, may growth but until biopsied, di dapat sinabing cancer.

    According to Zsazsa, sabi pa daw ng doctor niya na after surgery: "you will be cancer free, I can not promise that you will be cancer free for life, but after surgery, you will be in remission." Kalerks lang. A doctor would make such declaration kahit di pa sure? Eh sa pangungusap parang sure na sure na eh. Nakakasakit ng ulo ang circus na ito.

    Zsa Zsa Padilla: “After surgery, I want to be able to say, ‘I am a cancer survivor.’”- Paano yan? Di na niya pwedeng sabihin yan.

    This has turned out to be such a circus and I'm sorry to say that their camp only has themselves to blame. Nagalit pa si Zia because of the way the publicity has been hounding her mom, when in the first place, they brought the public in on her condition by her "press release."

    There is something crazy about this news. Biopsy is not advised in kidney cancer because it would be too bloody and unnecessary. Kahit naman kasi benign kailangan pa rin tanggalin, so surgery talaga ang remedy. However, I find it unbelievable that it would turn out to be benign when the initial finding was malignant. ANG LAYO ng hitsura ng benign sa malignant tumor sa kidney. Sa CT scan pa lang alam na kaagad ng urologist, maski ng radiologist na malignant yan. However, what would be tested after the tumor is taken out is if nag metastasize na to the other parts and hence the question of whether positive or negative for cancer on the surrounding tissues and organs.

    A urologist is different from a nephrologist. Zsazsa had a nephrectomy. They performed tests on the tissue taken out of the growing mass in her kidney.

    Tyler. DUDE, before ka magcorrect magresearch ka muna. Nephrologists dont do surgery. I know urologist is different from a nephrologist. I did not mistake one for the other. Nephrologists are internists. Internal medicine ang nephrology. Kaloka ka. If the Radiologists will find a surgical concern for you kindey in your ultra sound or ct scan, sa Urologist ka ire-refer because they will conduct the surgery and it is the urologist who upon studying your scans can already tell you if it's likely to be malignant . At btw, hindi nephrologist ang nagconduct ng test sa tumor niya kundi pathologist.

    who are you to say that this is a malpractice and a misdiagnosis? do you think the doctors are that crazy to start chemo and radiation without a firm diagnosis? kaya nga sya inoperahan para mapagaralan muna yung bukol nya. wag na lang tayong magmarunong, lets leave it to the experts. mahalaga we have a very happy patient.

    Her doctor is a' kidney specialist' in Cedars Sinai in LA and she told Zsa Zsa she had stage 1 cancer and its malignant.Obviously Zsa Zsa was misdiagnosed!Imagined if Zsa Zsa is having chemo and radiation for nothing? Could you believe the stress and anxiety this situation may have caused Zsa Zsa, her children, family, and friends? Malpractice and wrong diagnosis happens all the time in the US, Im glad for Zsa Zsa that everything turns out ok.

    Hindi naman nagche-chemo ang kidney cancer. Surgery lang ang remedy diyan. It's a cell carcinoma.

    happy for zsazsa, turns out she doesn't have stage 1 kidney cancer. But why was there a definite press release that she has cancer? usually, you are diagnosed only after a biopsy confirms malignancy. Does that mean, initial biopsy was defective? anong hospital kaya.

    I am confused about this too...Stage 1 normally confirms malignancy. Now its benign. I am happy for her that everything is okay but I think there is a bit of confusion about this whole thing. Was there any biopsy performed at the start for them to say that it was Stage 1?

    ang initial diagnosis ay stage 1 cancer base sa initial findings like tumor markings sa dugoat yung itsura mismo ng bukol sa ultrasounds, don nila nakikita kung mataas ang chance na maging cancer. pero hanggat hindi naooperahan ang pasyente at nakukuha yung tumor for pathological assessment, hindi mako-confirm kung talagang malignant nga. may mga protocol na sinusunod ang mga doktor at ang hospital at tama lang ang sinabi nila kay zsazsa kesa sinabi nilang benign yun pala malignant na. you dont give patients false hopes.

    It's the reason why she went to the state for a second opinion, other doctors can make mistake. This happen to my husband before we found out that he have a tumor. He went for a regular check up and found out his high blood pressure was high. He never have a high blood pressure before. His doctor told him the reason for his high blood pressure it's because he is African American they just told him to stop eating fried foods. He was getting bruises for no reason his whole body was swollen. They did a CT scan and MRI it was two radiology that checked his MRI they still didn't see what's on his MRI. 9 months later we decided to get a second opinion and went to a different hospital. We finally found out that he had a tumor in his pituitary. Lucky his tumor was benign his new doctor said that it could have been malign if we just ignore it and didn't ask for second opinion. Zsa Zsa was smart for getting a second opinion. Benign tumor can turn into malign if it's ignore.

    Sa US siya nag pa test. Hindi doctors dito ang nagsabi na may cancer siya. Doctors from the states ang nagsabi nun.

    Ano ba yan? Press release agad stage 1 cancer di pa submitted for biopsy ang tumor. Paanong magiging cancerous and benign tumor. Siguro kasalanan ito ng reporter. Anyway, I'm happy for Zsazsa and her family specially her daughters.

    usually naman ang bukol sa kidney ay benign and nothing to worry. unless seguro mahirap ang buhay mo at wala kang pampagamot. my sister had an operation last february at nagkaroon siya nang mast sa kidney niya. unlike zsa zsa ang sister ko ay binuksan para maging malinis ang pagtanggal nang mast. kanya kanya naman kasing diskarte iyan. dahil kung totally binuksan si zsa zsa it would take a month to heal and magpagaling. same dito rin sa US inoperahan ang sister ko.
