Iron Maiden have confirmed that their iconic frontman, Bruce Dickinson, has completed treatment for a tumour found on his tongue.

In a statement, the band say:

“Just before Christmas, Bruce visited his doctor for a routine check-up. This led to tests and biopsies, which revealed a small cancerous tumour at the back of his tongue. A course of chemotherapy and radiology was completed yesterday.

“As the tumour was caught in the early stages, the prognosis is extremely good. Bruce’s medical team expect him to make a complete recovery, with the all-clear expected by late May. It will take a further few months for Bruce to get back to full fitness.”

Get better Bruce! \m/
