The White House has announced that the First Lady, Jill Biden, has undergone two surgical interventions. The announcement states that surgeons removed a cancerous lesion above her right eye as well as another cancerous lesion on her chest, the White House announced.
A third lesion on her left eyelid is still being examined.
Dr. Kevin O'Connor, the president's physician, Joe Biden, has said that tests showed that lesions above Biden's left eye and a newly discovered one on her breast were both confirmed to be basal cell carcinoma. The lesion in her right eye was "completely excised, bordered and sent for standard microscopic examination," the Associated Press reported.
Jill Biden and her husband, President Joe Biden, spent the day at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, as she underwent a scheduled outpatient procedure known as Mohs surgery to remove and examine the lesions.
