Former President Biden Undergoes Mohs Surgery for Skin Cancer

News summary

Current President Joe Biden recently underwent Mohs surgery to remove skin cancer lesions from his forehead, as confirmed by multiple sources. This precise procedure involves removing thin layers of skin until no cancerous cells remain and is commonly used to treat basal cell carcinoma, the most prevalent form of skin cancer. Biden, who has a history of skin cancer treatments including a 2023 tumor removal from his chest, continues to receive regular dermatological surveillance. In addition to his skin cancer treatment, Biden was diagnosed earlier this year with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has metastasized to his bones, for which he is undergoing treatment. His diagnosis has drawn bipartisan support, with public figures expressing encouragement during his health challenges. The former First Lady, Jill Biden, also underwent Mohs surgery for skin cancer in 2023, highlighting the family's ongoing battle with cancer.
