UPDATE: LFO tweeted an update, saying, "Devin's surgery went very well. Thx 4 the ❤️ & 🙏🏻! More info soon."
Devin Lima underwent surgery on Thursday to remove a massive benign tumor.
Lima and his LFO bandmate Brad Fischetti opened up to fans about Devin's health in a YouTube video, revealing that doctors found the tumor just three weeks ago.
The 40-year-old singer explained that the tumor was affecting his adrenal gland, kidneys and heart. Brad added that an adrenal gland is normally the size of the top of an acorn, while Devin described his own as Hulk-sized, saying it was the size of a tall sundae, and "covering everything."
Fischetti said in the video that Devin could lose a kidney, spleen, part of his colon and more in the surgery.
