Ron Jeremy is in critical condition due to an aneurysm near his heart, TMZ reports. According to the site, the porn legend was admitted to L.A.'s Cedars-Sinai hospital on Jan. 29 after he experienced severe chest pain.

Jeremy's manager, Mike Esterman, told TMZ that the 59-year-old adult film icon drove himself to the hospital on Tuesday afternoon. There, doctors examined him and discovered a dangerous aneurysm in his chest.

Sometime later, the star's condition worsened and he was transferred to the ICU. On the morning of Wednesday, Jan. 30, he was being prepped for surgery. No other information was immediately available.

Jeremy is one of the most famous adult film actors in the world. He has appeared in more than 1,700 X-rated flicks, as well as at least 50 mainstream movies, including The Boondock Saints.

Ron is currently in ICU recovering from 2 major heart surgeries today. The surgeries went well. He is NOT seeing ANYONE. He is NOT allowed ANY visitors. His doctors and his family now just want him to rest and have complete privacy. Thank ALL of you, for all your thoughts and concern (and your understanding of the situation during this time).

Ron Jeremy isn't stiff—and for once that's a good thing.

The adult film star is conscious and his condition steadily improving since undergoing emergency surgery for an aneurysm near his heart six days ago and a follow-up operation to stem some internal bleeding.

Jeremy's 94-year-old father, Arnold Hyatt, told the New York Daily News that the porn pioneer remains in intensive care at Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, but is awake and "on the road to recovery, in spite of this ordeal."

"I still have my fingers crossed," Hyatt said. "If you're familiar with this kind of procedure, there can be periods of euphoria followed by setbacks."

Ron Jeremy has surgery, porn star resting after procedure goes "smoothly"

Jeremy, 59, experienced extreme tightness in his chest last Wednesday and ended up driving himself to the hospital, where doctors diagnosed the porn actor with a dangerous aneurysm near his heart. His dad said the first procedure lasted eight hours while the second surgery was necessary after he suffered complications.

His official website stated that once Jeremy is cleared to leave the ICU, he'll remain hospitalized for a few more weeks while his physicians monitor his progress.

"You, the fans, mean a lot to Ron and he appreciates your support and prayers," his management added in a statement.

Jeremy, of course, ranks No. 1 on AVN's list of "The 50 Top Porn Stars of All Time" and holds the Guinness Book of World Records for the most appearances in adult movies with 2,000-plus.
