Initially considered cured in December of the same year, the disease recurred after eight months, manifesting itself in four distinct regions: two lymph nodes, a metastasis in the peritoneum and a nodule in the ureter.
The professional highlighted that Preta Gil has played a significant role in encouraging other patients through her willingness to share information about her condition. The expert noted that although the type of cancer faced by the artist is common, it is also known for its aggressiveness.
"She challenged prejudices by making her experience and difficulties public, especially in relation to the use of a colostomy bag", he commented in conversation with CARAS Brasil, pointing to the possibility that the singer was dealing with colon adenocarcinoma b>, one of the most frequent and aggressive types of the gastrointestinal tract.
Although some cases of this disease have less impact on patients, the Preta Gil's situation is particularly challenging due to recurrence and spread to multiple locations. Theoncologist explained that the return of the disease in new sites implies the need for therapeutic strategies different from those previously adopted. "The previous treatment did not prevent the disease from returning, which will probably require the introduction of new medications by the medical team accompanying her," he said.
Abissamra also explained the particularities of cancer in the lymph nodes, also popularly known as tongues. He highlighted that these structures are crucial in the maturation of the body's defense cells, but they often become the first points of disease reappearance when malignant cells overcome the body's defenses. "The lymph nodes increase in size due to the concentration of tumor cells and can be the starting points for dissemination to other areas such as the peritoneum and ureter", he detailed.
The expert concluded by emphasizing the importance of specialized and continuous treatment to deal with the complexity of Preta Gil's current clinical condition, highlighting that each new location of the disease requires a carefully planned medical approach.

Samba lost one of its greatest references this Friday (8): Arlindo Cruz passed away at the age of 66 in Rio de Janeiro. Recognized for his vast work with 795 registered compositions, the samba singer marked generations with hits such as “Saudade Louca” and “Boto Meu Povo na Rua” . Born in Madureira, the birthplace of Rio samba, Arlindo was also a passionate Flamengo fan.
His retirement from the stage occurred after suffering a stroke in 2017, which impacted his career and health. Family members confirmed his death, without disclosing the official cause, but emphasized the artist's cultural legacy and his love for soccer, especially for the "Mais Querido" (Most Beloved). The wake will be open to the Rio de Janeiro community.
The son of Arlindão, who had meetings with samba artists like Candeia at home, Arlindo Cruz immersed himself in the musical world from an early age. At 17, he began his professional career as a cavaquinho player on Candeia's 1975 album "Roda de Samba." Over time, he became known for his mastery of the banjo, an instrument he helped popularize in samba and which became his trademark.
A central figure in the founding of the Cacique de Ramos samba circle, the musician rubbed shoulders with greats such as Zeca Pagodinho and Jorge Aragão. With Fundo de Quintal, a legendary samba group, he recorded 10 albums that helped cement the genre . From the 1990s onward, he developed a solo career with successful albums such as "Arlindinho" (1993) and important collaborations with producer Sombrinha.
Madureira, a neighborhood that forged its cultural and musical identity, was the setting for compositions that celebrated everyday life, street smarts, and the richness of Rio's samba. A strong connection to Flamengo was present in his daily life: Arlindo frequented the Maracanã stadium, participated in club events, and received tributes on special occasions , cementing his status as a Flamengo icon.
