Overview

  • Postoperative scans at Kokilaben Hospital found no residual cancer cells after her June 2–3 surgery to remove a tennis-ball-sized liver tumour and her gallbladder.
  • Biopsy results classified the tumour as grade three and poorly differentiated, indicating high aggressiveness and a significant risk of recurrence.
  • Doctors have advised targeted therapy to begin next week in place of standard chemotherapy for better long-term control.
  • The prescribed plan calls for daily oral medication for one to two years, with follow-up scans every three months to monitor for any signs of relapse.
  • Husband Shoaib Ibrahim has documented her treatment journey online as the family prepares for ongoing health monitoring.
