Camille Grammer diagnosed with endometrial cancer, undergoes surgery

Former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Camille Grammer underwent a "radical hysterectomy" after being diagnosed with early stage endometrial cancer.


The invasive procedure took place on Friday, her rep told People magazine.


""The surgery went well and she is expected to make a complete recovery following a significant recuperation period," her rep, Howard Bragman, said.

The 45-year-old reality star has two children via surrogate with ex-husband, "Frasier" actor Kelsey Grammer.


She was at an "elevated risk" of the reproductive cancer because of her genetic issues, according to Bragman.


“[She] has been diligent about regular checkups and monitoring, which explains the early detection and rapid treatment," he said.
