Last night, Van Halen’s website posted a message to fans,
stating that Eddie Van Halen has undergone emergency surgery. The message, in
full, reads: “Eddie Van Halen underwent an emergency surgery for a severe bout
of Diverticulitis. No further surgeries are needed and a full recovery is
expected within 4 – 6 months. Van Halen’s scheduled November 2012 tour of Japan
is currently being rescheduled and the band looks forward to seeing and playing
for their fans in 2013.”
According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine,
diverticulitis refers to small, bulging sacs or pouches of the inner lining of
the intestine (diverticulosis) that become inflamed or infected. Most often,
these pouches are in the large intestine (colon).
