昨年の定期健診で乳がんが見つかり、全摘後の再建手術を進めるなかでの新たな診断だった

According to a spokesperson, the patient is currently recuperating at home surrounded by his family and looking forward to his recovery.
メラノーマは悪性度が高く、転移しやすいがんとされている
Melanoma is considered to be a highly malignant cancer that easily metastasizes.
It is more common in Caucasians, and sunburn and freckles are listed as risk factors.
報道担当者によると、ファーガソンさんは注意深い観察でがんを見つけた皮膚科医らに感謝し、ほくろの形や色、感触や新たな出現に注意することが重要だと呼び掛けている
According to a spokesperson, Ms Ferguson thanked the dermatologists who discovered the cancer through careful observation and urged people to pay attention to the shape, color, texture and appearance of moles.
