Biden being evaluated for "small nodule" in prostate: reports

A "small nodule" was found in former President Biden's prostate during a routine physical exam, multiple outlets reported late Monday and early Tuesday.Why it matters: A spokesperson said that the nodule required "further evaluation, according to the The New York Times, which was the first to report the discovery.The Times reported that the 82-year-old former president spent last Friday at a hospital in Philadelphia after the nodule was discovered.The big picture: In 2023, Biden had a lesion removed from his chest that was found to be cancerous, but it did not require further treatment.The next year, then-White House physician Kevin O'Connor deemed the former president to be "fit for duty."However, questions about his health and mental fitness clouded the end of his presidency, and eventually led him to drop his 2024 re-election campaign.During a joint interview with former First Lady Jill Biden last week, Biden pushed back on reports of his declining mental acuity.Go deeper...
