First lady Jill Biden, accompanied by U.S. President Joe Biden, spent more than seven hours at a military hospital on Wednesday for outpatient surgery to remove a lesion discovered during a routine skin cancer screening.
A small lesion was found above the first lady's right eye recently and she will have an outpatient procedure to remove it, presidential physician Kevin O'Connor said in a statement last week, citing an "abundance of caution."
Dr. O'Connor will provide an update later today, the White House said on Wednesday afternoon. The operation is "proceeding well and as expected," the first lady's office said. O'Connor said in his statement that the first lady would undergo a common procedure known as Mohs surgery to remove and definitively examine the tissue.
