Olga Sana awaits test results to guide treatment after breast cancer surgery

Comedian Bettina Salazar, known as Olga Sana, had surgery after breast cancer returned in her left breast.

She had a mastectomy, and surgeons placed an implant during the same operation.

Initial checks found no cancer in her lymph nodes, which lowers concern that the disease has spread.

Doctors are studying the removed tissue and tumor markers to determine the next treatment.

Salazar hopes to avoid chemotherapy, and doctors have said the chance she will need it is low.

The results will show whether medication, including hormone or targeted treatment, is suitable.

Her treatment plan will be decided after the final test results, with FUCAM and her medical team continuing her care.
