Shoaib Ibrahim Reveals Dipika Kakar's Tumour Was ‘Aggressive': ‘Chances of Recurrence Are Significant'
Last Updated: Shoaib Ibrahim shared that wife Dipika Kakar's tumour was aggressive. Though she's recovering well, doctors warned of a significant risk of cancer recurrence. Last month was quite difficult for television couple Dipika Kakar and Shoaib Ibrahim after the former was diagnosed with a stage 2 malignant tumour in her liver. She underwent surgery on June 2, and now, almost a month later, her husband Shoaib Ibrahim has shared an update on her recovery and what the doctors have advised. In a recent vlog on his YouTube channel, Shoaib revealed that as part of the recovery process, Dipika will undergo targeted therapy. He also recalled the day she had her first surgery on June 3. Shoaib said, 'I can't forget the date. I was sitting by the window, extremely worried, along with my friends who were supporting me. We were all waiting for the doctor's update. Now, a month has passed." Further in the vlog, the couple revealed that while there are currently no cancer cells in her body, the situation indicates a chance of recurrence. They shared, 'As far as the body is concerned, there are currently no cancer cells present. However, the biopsy report that we received and the PET scan we reviewed indicated a more serious situation. The tumour was classified as grade three and poorly differentiated, which means it was quite aggressive. Therefore, the chances of recurrence are significant. After the surgery, the doctor prescribed medication. Although there are no cancer cells now, if any are detected in the future, the dosage will be increased, and she will receive medication intravenously. Her treatment will begin next week and will last for about two years. Scans will be conducted every three weeks." Talking about the 38-year-old actress's health journey, last month, Dipika revealed that she is battling stage 2 liver cancer. The television star, known for her role in Sasural Simar Ka, shared the heartbreaking update through an emotional Instagram note. After suffering intense stomach pain, doctors discovered a tumour 'the size of a tennis ball" in her liver, which was later confirmed to be cancerous. Since then, Shoaib has been sharing her health updates on social media. On the work front, Dipika Kakar was last seen in the first-ever season of Celebrity MasterChef. She had to leave the show midway due to a shoulder injury. The show was won by Gaurav Khanna. Meanwhile, Shoaib Ibrahim was last seen in the television show Ajooni.
