King Charles 3 Brave Battle with Cancer. Following surgery for an enlarged prostate, Buckingham Palace announced on Monday that King Charles III had been diagnosed with cancer. The hospital did not specify the type of cancer or the severity of the ailment.
“An additional matter of worry was identified during The King’s most recent hospital operation for benign prostatic enlargement. A type of cancer has been detected through more diagnostic testing, the palace announced in a statement.
Charles does not have prostate cancer, according to the palace, though it is unknown what kind of cancer was found.
An enlarged prostate is very frequent in older men and is not associated with cancer: It affects over 80% of men over 70, according to Yale Medicine. In November, Charles celebrated his 75th birthday.
Because of a recent hospital procedure, the King is grateful to his medical team for their prompt assistance. He is still entirely satisfied with his care and eager to get back to doing his official duties as soon as possible, according to the statement.
The King has cancelled his royal obligations, and other illustrious family members are anticipated to take his place. The King has decided to disclose information about his sickness in order to “avoid speculation” and increase public awareness for others who have been diagnosed with cancer, the Palace continued. Since the King’s admission to a private London clinic hospital on January 26 for a scheduled surgery to treat his enlarged prostate, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), his health has been under increased public scrutiny this month.
In an attempt to persuade other men to get their prostates examined, Buckingham Palace declared on January 17 that the King will receive prostate therapy prior to his hospital stay. His strategy worked, as reported by The Guardian, who states that an increase in the number of individuals visiting the NHS website’s page regarding the ailment was 11 times higher than typical.
