Biden has ‘cancerous tissue’ removed, White House says: ‘No further treatment is required’

President Biden had a “cancerous” skin lesion removed from his chest as part of his comprehensive health assessment in February, according to the White House. 

Biden’s doctor revealed in a late Friday afternoon memo that skin tissue was removed during his health assessment on Feb. 16 and was sent for a biopsy, which revealed it was cancerous. 

“All cancerous tissue was successfully removed,” Biden’s doctor said, adding “no further treatment is required.”
