KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 8 — Chinese actress Raquel Xu had a health scare recently when she experienced post-surgery complications to remove a lump in her breast. 

The operation on November 6 was reported to have been a minor one. 

Sin Chew Daily reported that Xu became unconscious as a result of the procedure.

It was carried out at a hospital that provides plastic surgery services.
