US former president Joe Biden was diagnosed with aggressive form of prostate cancer on Friday, said a statement from his personal office on Sunday.

据美国前总统乔·拜登办公室周日发布的声明，现年82岁的拜登于周五被确诊患有恶性前列腺癌。

The cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5), has metastasized to the bone, said the statement.

医学报告显示，该癌症的格里森评分高达9分（5级组），且已经转移到了骨骼。

Earlier, Biden reported urinary symptoms, which led doctors to find a "small nodule" on his prostate.

声明指出，此前拜登因泌尿系统症状加剧就医检查，医生在其前列腺部位发现一个“小结节”。

"While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management," said the statement.

虽然该癌症属于侵袭性较强的类型，但似乎对激素比较敏感，可进行有效管理。

"The president and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians," added the statement.

“拜登总统及其家人正在与医疗团队共同评估治疗方案”，声明补充道。

Aged 82, Biden served as US President from January 2021 to January 2025 as the oldest-serving president in the history of the United States.

作为美国历史上最高龄的总统，拜登曾于2021年1月至2025年1月期间执掌白宫。
