Kyle Sandilands: Aneurysm Update Good, Surgery Risky

Radio personality Kyle Sandilands, 54, has provided an update on his health concerning aneurysms detected last year. Recent medical check-ups, occurring six-monthly since his diagnosis, indicate that the aneurysms have not increased in size. This news offers a reassuring outlook for Sandilands, who was initially unsure how long he had lived with the condition.

Despite the stable findings, Sandilands faces significant challenges regarding potential surgical interventions. The brain aneurysm, located at a critical junction, presents a high risk for surgery, with doctors estimating a need to "cut his face off" to access it. Consequently, the current medical strategy involves continued monitoring of its size.

Furthermore, Sandilands revealed a second aneurysm situated in his chest. While not currently operable, this condition is also being managed. The radio star previously disclosed the seriousness of his condition in February, emphasizing the dangers of his past lifestyle, including cocaine use and partying, as contributing factors to his health issues.
