Former President Jimmy Carter had a "small mass"
removed from his liver during surgery Monday, his office said.
The surgery at
Emory University Hospital "proceeded without issues, and the prognosis is
excellent for a full recovery," according to a statement from the Carter
Center, the Atlanta not-for-profit the former president opened after leaving
the White House.
Carter, 90, is
the second-oldest living president but has led an active post-presidency,
recently releasing a new autobiography, "A Full Life," and promoting it in media appearances.
The former
President has experienced some health concerns before. He cut a trip short to Guyana in May because he "was
not feeling well."
