United States: US Vice President Joe Biden, 80, had a cancerous skin lesion successfully removed from his chest in February, according to his doctor.

According to a report made public by the White House, Biden's doctor, Kevin O'Connor, identified the lesion as a basal cell carcinoma that "does not 'spread' or lead to metastasis," and that "no and does not require treatment" after the wound was removed during Biden's annual physical on February 16. The president was deemed "fit for duty".

The president will continue dermatologic surveillance as part of his ongoing comprehensive health care, O'Connor reported Friday. The biopsy site has healed well.
