Cause of death for Kanye's mother unclear
The exact cause of death for rapper Kanye West's mother is "unclear", according to the Los Angeles County Coroner.
In a 17-page final autopsy report, the coroner's office attributed the death of 58-year-old Donda West to coronary artery disease and a number of factors related to her cosmetic surgery the day before.
However, the report said that there was no sign of "surgical or anesthetic misadventure".
Donda West died on 10 November last year after she was found in an unresponsive state at her home, a day after undergoing a cosmetic surgery procedure.
A preliminary report had suggested that she died from possible complications after the surgical procedures.
The final autopsy report, which is inconclusive, said that West "died from some pre-existing coronary artery disease and multiple post-operative factors following surgery".
"Based on the history and available information, as currently known, the manner of death could not be determined," the report said.

Hammond quits new home after just 70 hours
Top Gear's Richard Hammond was in his new home for just 70 hours before deciding to move back to his old one.
Hammond, 38, soon realised the new place was not for him - and now faces a nightmare bill of up to €60,000 for changing his mind.
The TV presenter and his family left their rented farmhouse in Gloucestershire for a new home in Buckinghamshire on Friday.
However, he lasted only three days in the property before deciding that the change in "lifestyle" didn't suit him.
He told the Mirror newspaper: "It only took us a couple of days to realise we were changing a lifestyle that suits us. It's an expensive lesson.
"I got there first, ready for the removal men. And as they started unloading, I began to wonder. Everything was smart, and rather posh and lovely, but could we fit in?
"When Mindy and the girls arrived, I thought 'This isn't right'."

Girls Aloud Star Nicola Roberts Dumps Boyfriend
Girls Aloud star Nicola Roberts has finally split with her boyfriend after a tempestuous year long relationship.
The 22-year-old singer is said to have broken off the relationship after months of “tearful late-night phone calls” from her group’s current ‘Tangled-Up’ tour.
A source tells the News Of The World, “It's all very upsetting for poor Nicola but she'd be the first to admit things haven't been great between her and Carl for a while.
"Their relationship has always been feisty but recently the rows were explosive.
"There have been lots of tearful late-night phone calls and now she's decided to call time on it all. The strain of touring has taken its toll and Nicola's made up her mind it's over."
The pair have had a series of public bust ups, including a well-publicised confrontation at last year’s NME Awards, just three months after the start of their relationship.
