00:00Joe Biden, 82, seen with gash on his forehead after undergoing surgery to remove skin cancer.

00:12with a large gash on his forehead, his spokesperson Kelly Scully confirmed he underwent Moe's surgery
00:17to remove skin cancer. It eliminates cancerous cells until none remain. The 82-year-old left
00:24his wound unbandaged as he shook hands with supportive onlookers. Fred Carger, who filmed
00:29Biden, noted the visible scar, commenting on its fresh appearance, and the hair combed over it.

00:39Biden was seen with a bandage on his forehead in August while attending Mike Castle's funeral in
00:44Delaware. In May, he disclosed an aggressive prostate cancer diagnosis, and his team detailed his
00:50condition in a statement released on the 18th. Last week, President Joe Biden was examined for

01:01On Friday, he was diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score
01:06of 9 with metastasis to the bone. The statement added, While this represents a more aggressive
01:11form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive, which allows for effective
01:16management. During his presidency, Biden underwent surgery in February 2023 to remove a skin
01:23lesion from his chest. The biopsy revealed basal cell carcinoma, and all cancerous tissue was removed.
01:30Unlike melanoma, these lesions don't spread but can grow.
