Serena Williams Turns 43: Celebrating a Sports Icon and Cultural Trailblazer

Serena Williams is giving fans an update on her health after undergoing surgery to remove a cyst from her neck.

The tennis superstar took to TikTok to share the news about the mass that had been growing since May, and she was candid about her experience.

“I was mortified by it,” she admitted. Serena explained that after a series of tests, she discovered she had a branchial cyst, which can be pretty rare.

Also in her video, she showed the moment the cyst—described as “grapefruit-sized”—was removed, joking that it “kinda hurted” as it came out.

Williams detailed how the situation unfolded after getting an MRI, during which she initially hesitated to have the cyst removed.

However, as it continued to grow, she knew she had to act. “Doctors advised me to get it removed ASAP because it could get infected or leak,” she said.

Feeling grateful for the great doctors she worked with, Serena shared her relief: “Everything worked out, and I’m healthy.”

@serena Back in May I found a lump showing on my neck. I immediately went to the doc got a mri and was told I have a brachial cyst. Have you ever heard of that? They said I don’t need to get it removed if I don’t want. So I did not get it but it kept growing. I decided to get more test and 3 test and one biopsy later everything is still negative but doctors advised I get it removed asap because it was the size of a small grapefruit and it could get infected or worse leak. So this is me removing it. I am feelimg so grateful, and fortunate everything worked out, and most of all I’m healthy. I still made it to American doll with Olympia as promised. And yes all is ok. 🙏🏿🙏🏿 #fyp #foryourpage #serenawilliams #mom ♬ original sound – Serenawilliams
