When Biden was the sitting president in February 2023, he had a cancerous lesion removed from his chest. Before he entered the White House as the 46th president, he also had several non-melanoma skin cancers removed.
“As expected, the biopsy confirmed that the small lesion was basal cell carcinoma,” White House physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor said at the time. “All cancerous tissue was successfully removed… No further treatment is required.”
