Nodule found in Joe Biden's prostate during routine exam

A small nodule was detected in Ex-President Joe Biden's prostate during a routine physical exam, the Associated Press reported Tuesday.

The discovery, which requires a "further evaluation," has generated attention, although no additional details on the nature of the nodule or next medical steps were provided.

This finding comes in the context of Biden's previous medical care. During his presidency, in February 2023, the former president underwent removal of a skin lesion on his chest, which the White House described as "cancerous."

According to a memo from then White House physician Dr. Kevin O'Connor, the lesion was identified as a basal cell carcinoma following a biopsy.

The cancerous tissue was completely removed by electrodesiccation and curettage, and no further treatment was required. O'Connor noted that the biopsy site had healed well and that Biden would continue to undergo regular dermatological surveillance as part of his comprehensive medical care.

At this time, no further details about the prostate nodule or ongoing evaluations have been released.
