Medical diagnostic details
According to the information shared by the authorities, the officer’s health status requires a specialized oncological approach following recent medical findings:
- On April 7th, the sergeant major underwent spinal surgery due to an L3 disc injury.
- During said procedure, a biopsy was performed which confirmed a diagnosis of malignant neoplasm in the left kidney.
- The diagnosis also revealed the presence of bone metastasis, which necessitates the immediate start of rigorous oncological treatment.
