Davina McCall Undergoes Surgery for Rare Brain Tumor
The TV presenter is recovering after a craniotomy to remove a colloid cyst, a rare non-cancerous tumor affecting three in a million people.
- Davina McCall discovered the colloid cyst during a routine health scan offered after a menopause talk.
- The 14mm wide cyst was deemed large enough to potentially cause complications if not removed.
- McCall's surgery was described as 'textbook' by her surgeon, and she is currently recovering in ICU.
- Her partner, Michael Douglas, has been providing updates and expressed gratitude for the outpouring of support.
- Colloid cysts, though benign, can block fluid flow in the brain, leading to serious symptoms if untreated.
