Veteran Egyptian actor Mustafa Fahmy was recently admitted to the hospital after suffering a sudden health deterioration.

He was diagnosed with brain cancer and underwent urgent surgery to remove a brain tumor.

Hussein Fahmy, the actor's brother and a fellow celebrated actor, extended his deep thanks to the medical team for their great efforts.

He added that Mustafa Fahmy is in high spirits and continues to receive the necessary support and care at home.

Hussein Fahmy also thanked the fans for their prayers and concern for his brother's health.

A close source to the acclaimed actor revealed that his health condition has improved and is home, where he will complete his treatment.

Mustafa Fahmy underwent brain surgery ten days ago without announcing it upon his and his family request not to alert the press.

He was discharged from the hospital after his condition had been stabilized.

Mustafa Fahmy is completing his treatment with his family, who are providing him with the necessary support and care during his recovery period.

Doctors said the actor's health condition requires a period of rest and recovery as well as to follow medical instructions to ensure a full recovery.

Born on August 7, 1942, Mustafa Fahmy,  studied cinematography at the High Institute of Cinema. 

He then worked as an assistant in "Amira Hobby Ana" (Amira My Love) in 1974, and started his acting career the same year with a role in the film "Ayna Aqly" (Where is My Mind?). 

Two years later, he got his breakthrough when he landed roles in four other films, and since then, he has appeared in more then 155 films, TV series, and theatrical productions.
