PostHeaderIcon Behind rumors of leaking breast implants, GMA is declared “healthy” with benign mammary & groin biopsy results



Almost coincident to the somber news that former Pres. Cory Aquino has abandoned all treatment against advanced colonic malignancy, Pres. Gloria M. Arroyo who was on self-quarantine for H1N1 flu underwent biopsies of breast and groin masses at the Asian Hospital which turned out to be negative. Malacanang Palace issued a statement that the post-menopausal president is in perfect health.

“According to the Palace official, the lumps were discovered “earlier” during her medical check up at the Asian Hospital before she went to Pampanga to visit her infrastructure projects in June 15, two days before she flew for her 13-day, five-nation visits that ended on Monday night.

“There is biopsy made, the result is negative. The President is in pink of health,” ----Press. Sec. Cerge Remonde. Manila Bulletin (07/03/09, Luci, C. M.)

The press release was also a repudiation of a rumor that the president had leaking silicone breast implants done in the 1980's. President Arroyo’s attending physician and gynecologist Dr. Maria Theresa Tangkeko-Lopez certified Pres. Arroyo’s clean bill of health, but didn't comment on the implants.
