Former US President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer, according to a statement from his office. Doctors identified the condition during a routine physical examination.
Biden, 82, and his family “are reviewing treatment options with his physicians,” the statement said as cited by the media.
“On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” the statement said. “While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management.”
